This week, I read an interesting article about the criticisms of the design thinking method. The article titled “In Defense of Design Thinking, Which is Terrible” wasn’t written to bash on design thinking, but rather to help designers realize the importance of interacting outside their bubble. We can do this by being open to people in other disciplines and creating a welcoming community that is eager to share and collaborate. If we would like design to have a greater impact on the world, one of the first steps to take is to help others understand our ideas and thought processes so that they can grasp what exactly we do and see the value we bring to a team.
