About Design Thinking

Some of the world’s leading brands, such as Apple, Google, Samsung and GE, have adopted Design Thinking. The methodology is also being taught at leading universities, including Stanford, Harvard and MIT. It can be used in any industry to gain a better understanding of the challenges faced by your end-users (clients, internal staff, business stakeholders) and to design practical solutions to those challenges without wasting time and resources.

Legal Design Thinking

As with most business support functions, Legal is now being expected to provide seamless, efficient, cost-effective services that work for business. To do this successfully, law firm and in-house counsel teams need to adopt new approaches to defining the problems their clients are facing and designing solutions to meet them. Legal Design Thinking is a hands-on practice that will help your team ensure that the tools, processes, and systems you’re designing for your users will work in their daily environments, actually solve their problems, and create more value.

Designing Better Solutions 

Design Thinking (or Human-Centered Design) is a creative approach to problem solving and designing new solutions. It starts with building empathy for your end-users, encourages collaboration and rapid ideation, and challenges you to test your ideas before investing too many resources.
