Design Thinking Meets Transformation

Last week, the community of Design Thinking professionals met in Singapore. On Friday, we discussed how culture can be influenced and how Design Thinking might support transformation - very interesting question...

I have started to use Design Thinking in order to cultivate customer value focus, agility and cross-silo collaboration. With great success.

Another thought we developed is around intrinsic motivation. Design Thinking facilitates:
* a clear definition of challenges that supports purpose;
* autonomy due to the focus on empathy (button up thinking)
* the iterative prototyping allows mastery (getting closer and closer to the customer needs)

How do you see the connection between transformation and design thinking?
