Integrating Design Thinking, Lean and Agile

Description

This program provides an overview of Design Thinking, Lean Startup and Agile methods and illustrates how each should be applied and integrated into the journey of an idea all the way to business value realization. Developing an innovative idea into a stage of business value realization is a long and tedious journey; it involves different types of thinking and working at different stages of the life of the idea. Broadly speaking, this journey can be classified into 3 stages: deep understanding of user needs and innovating solutions; experimenting with a solution concept through prototyping and validating; and implementing the solution prototype into a commercial solution. Design Thinking, Lean Startup and Agile methods fit perfectly into these 3 stages.

This program provides an overview of each of these methods and illustrates how each should be applied and integrated into the journey of an idea all the way to business value realization.
