Can design thinking help us navigate an uncertain world? 🌏✈️

We connected with Kate Tregloan from the University of Melbourne at DTRS15
Her biggest insight? Design thinking allows us to engage with emergent ideas and sit more comfortably with a lack of certainty: the exact capacity needed to positively tackle today’s complex global challenges.

Is officially outdated? 🧐
We caught up with Sara Gancho at the stunning IADE Campus during to unpack this question. While some dismiss design thinking as a passing corporate fad, Sara argues that the framework only fails if we refuse to adapt it.
The secret? Forget the fancy label. At its core, it’s simply about people coming together to solve complex problems, build a sustainable future, and make human lives better.

Do Designers Possess a Unique Way of Knowing? Well, design thinking surely is not a recent IDEO invented, corporate innovation method as some like to sell it.
Design Thinking Researchers have spent decades developing theories around their own distinct ways of knowing.(The very first DTRS was 1992 at the TU Delft)
Daniela Marzavan talked to design research pioneer Nigel Cross at DTRS15 to discuss the true foundations of design thinking, and how an extremely dedicated professor - keen to making his students thinking process explicit - has shaped this wonderful discipline.

Is design thinking a powerful mindset, or is it just becoming a corporate commodity?

At DTRS15 in Lisbon, we sat down with Sihem Jouini, Associate Professor of Innovation and Creativity at HEC Paris. Sihem breaks down the double-edged sword facing our field today: it is being applied everywhere from healthcare to education, but that widespread popularity risks making it banal.

Her ultimate takeaway? We need it now more than ever to face today’s grand challenges, because design thinking is what keeps humans deeply in the loop.
