How do we unlock the transformational power of design thinking? To do this, we must understand that this power lies not in what it encourages us to do, but in who it encourages us to become. We become design thinkers by experiencing design. In this course, developed at the Darden School of Business at the University of Virginia, we will guide you through six key phases of the design journey - Immersion, Sensemaking, Alignment, Emergence, Imagining, and Learning in Action. For each of these phases, you will explore how design thinking done well impacts innovators by inviting them to bring their authentic selves into the innovation conversation. You will examine key behaviors that bridge the gap from beginner to competency, and deepen the skills that will allow you to achieve design thinking's transformational promise. You will also hear from industry leaders from all over the world who will share valuable lessons and personal stories about how experiencing design has shaped their exciting careers.

Very insightful and helpful in my job of conducting design sprint workshops. The course highlights a lot
of pain points that innovative projects would encounter. Now is the time to put these lessons into actual practice. Recommending to those keen on exploring DT
Great course! Highly recommended to understand the theory behind design thinking.
challenging and interesting course. I tried my best and actually accomplished more than I thought I would with this course. If someone is looking to learn how to understand and discover problems from users/customers, then obviously this is a good course to consider.
This was the most challenging of the 4 courses and not for the faint of heart. It was very good in creating introspection and practical development for the introduction into my organization. Instructors throughout the specialization were outstanding. Love and use the templates. The projects are invaluable because without practice, it is too abstract.
