Designers Think Big
Uploaded on Sep 30, 2009

Design Thinking with Yves Béhar and Tim Brown
Yves Béhar, CEO/Founder, fuseproject; COO, Jawbone
Tim Brown, President and CEO, IDEO
Peter Schwartz, Co-founder, Global Business Network; Senior Vice President, Salesforce - Moderator
Design is not just for house interiors or a tech gadget's user interface. Design has come to infiltrate how great leaders think, collaborate and tackle the world's smallest and greatest problems. The idea of design thinking, often credited to IDEO CEO Tim Brown, has transformed analytical thinking into creative yet practical problem solving. It is thinking outside the box come to life. Yves Béhar has leveraged his design ethos with a dedication to quality and a positive consumer-product relationship, and has led a number of diverse design projects like One Laptop Per Child and the NYC Condom, for that city's Department of Health. Join us as the wizards of design thinking Brown and Béhar dissect the formula for harmonizing industry, beauty, brand and meaning.

Redesign DT
In a world of increasing complexity, our problems just seem to get worse and worse. While the activity we call "design" began at the dawn of civilization, “design thinking” has recently been proposed as a means to solve these “wicked problems”—as well as all but guarantee a path to innovation for organizations of all stripes.
But what is "design thinking"? And is it the panacea proposed?
In an unblinking assessment of where design is and where it could take us, Paul Pangaro offers a critique of design thinking grounded in a cybernetic perspective. He argues that conversations are the heart and substance of all design practice, and shows how a cadence of designed conversations is an effective means for us to comprehend, and perhaps even begin to tame, our wicked problems.
