Hi, I'm Dr. CJ Meadows, Director of I2E, the Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center at SP Jain School of Global Management. My co-author, Dr. Charvi Parikh, and I have just published the Design Thinking Workbook: Essential Skills for Creativity and Business Growth. After years of practice and research in design thinking, we realized that there are some foundational foundational skills that people need before they even start Design Thinking, like creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, observing, listening, empathy. In the book, we give you stories, worksheets, exercises to help you build your skills, and those skills will help you no matter what you do, Design Thinking or not. Then we introduce you to the Design Thinking process and tools and techniques so you can find out what people really need and want, design breakthrough solutions, and prototype and experiment effectively to increase your chances of success. Not only that, but we've got a free multimedia, um, introductory work on the KnowBe platform, and we offer with the book over 50 worksheets templates on mural.co, my personal favorite online collaboration platform. So welcome to design thinking, and we look forward to hearing stories of how you put it to use to make your world better. Enjoy!
