This was the presentation, which I gave in the beginning of my workshop on Design Thinking in the local beathaus. The idea of the whole workshop was to introduce the design thinking methodology to the local community of creative professionals, startup people and corporate representatives. After the presentation I did the famous d.school workshop "The Wallet Experience". It's an interactive workshop that lasts for 90 minutes and takes the participants through all the phases of Design Thinking. It was amazing to see 100 people working with excitement. N.B. The presentation is mainly photos and examples of interesting design thinking projects. The most valuable part is the reading material at the end.
