[LetÕs hear from youÉ
What comes to mind when you think of words to describe Design Thinking?]

- [Heather Craig Co-Founder Development Director Š Hatch Workshop] 
like seeing how this
would have applied to a lot of the
situations in my previous job
um and then also using a lot of what IÕm
doing not necessarily for business but
like how IÕm applying to jobs like
especially right now and just like
how noticing how transferable all these
skills are into kind of anything that
you're trying to do
um and just coming always from a place
of like your customer
who your boss is like those things first
rather than like okay I have all the
answers within how am I gonna do this
rather you know like just flipping my
whole thought process on
my own head which was really valuable

[Introducing our Special Guest]
- [Holly Thorsen Senior Manager Design Thinking Learning & Development]
the master's thesis is conducted
the students have to come up with a with
a solution to a problem and
come up with uh innovative
innovative ways of solving it and then
actually create them
so you know a lot of times they're like
we will work with scientists
you know well do you know scientists how
are you going to be able to work with
them you know that's not going to happen so
anyway they have to come up with a
realistic scenario it was great to be on
the other side
of that and be the participant instead
of the guide because I think I got
a lot more out of it
by having to actually do it so

[Discussion

[LetÕs hear from youÉ
What has been your biggest takeaway or observation regarding Design Thinking so far?

- [Liubov Ivashow Student, MS in Data Science Š USF]
thank you so much guys thank you Rebecca
thank you Cynthia
thank you all of you it was an
incredible group
it was a pleasure working with all of
all of you
just it was so much fun
so um yeah IÕm really looking forward to
learn more because just like
even though it was a lot of information
I still need time to digest and
uh um IÕm really looking forward to
start reading these
books and apply them to my life to my
career so just like there is no um
so much kind of a space for creativity
in analytics um and
uh IÕm really enjoying uh doing
that so maybe it's the way to apply it right now

- [Derrick Wong Sales Development Representative Betterup]
I guess it's just gonna take
me some time to really like
practice it more and to really
uh put myself in a position where I need
to solve a problem
and then figure out like which parts
of this that I need to like rethink
uh like I literally had an app built to
solve a problem before actually
figuring out everything done first so I
mean like I literally have done that
before and so
to see it from the perspective of like
having that resource is great like
having the resource to know that once
you come up with us
with a solution that that having that
resource is great but actually slowing
down and planning it through is something IÕm
going to take away from this

- [Marc Ong Staff Nurse Š Burn ICU]
um I thought I thought it was great it
was a good workshop um
uh yeah well constructed I think what
IÕll take away most was that it was a good
framework to engage
large groups of people in
the um especially in the conceptual
stages of a proposal
I think especially for me
and I think this is closer to um the
traditional thinking um or the traditional
I want to say way of thinking through
issues I find that one of my flaws is
it's hard for me to share
or engage in others and bring them
into something IÕm in the process
of thinking through until IÕm done
thinking about it right until IÕve uh
spent the time to kind of think through
what is the problem
what do I want to do about it and
IÕve gotten to a certain degree of um
a finalized idea and I think this is
uh a real good way of like I said
engaging groups or others in uh
in participating in that kind of thought process
