Description
Have you seen a challenge in the community that you would like to fix? Would you like to learn problem-solving steps that can be used to address this challenge? Join speaker Meaghan Kennedy for this creative problem-solving session that will demonstrate the steps in the design thinking process, which can be used to generate creative solutions to problems. Learn how to use design thinking to understand challenges, build empathy for users, brainstorm ideas, and prototype and iterate on possible solutions. This process can also be used to define an entrepreneurial idea or an idea for your own business.
