SERVICE DESIGN PPT DESCRIPTION

This product (Design Thinking Project Template) is a 71-slide PPT PowerPoint presentation slide deck (PPTX), which you can download immediately upon purchase.

Design thinking is a human-centered, iterative problem-solving process of discovery, ideation, and experimentation that employs various design-based techniques to gain insight and yield innovative solutions for virtually any type of organizational or business challenge. This method combines both analytical and creative approaches to generate solutions.

This is a simple PowerPoint template which you can use to compile a product or service design project based on the Design Thinking process. The information can be presented to senior management, shared with other teams or serve as a reference for other design project teams.

The five phases of Design Thinking are:
1. Empathize
2. Define
3. Ideate
4. Prototype
5. Test

Simply follow the tools under each design phase and insert your own content. Illustrations/Examples are provided for each tool (e.g. Persona, Empathy Map) so that you will quickly know at a glance what is required under each phase of the Design Thinking process.

NOTE: If you have already purchased the Design Thinking (Workshop Guide) (sold separately), all the project templates listed here have been incorporated into the slides and you need not purchase them again.

The template includes a comprehensive project charter example, detailing key elements such as business problems, design challenges, and operational metrics. This ensures that your team remains aligned with project goals and maintains a clear focus on delivering measurable outcomes. The project charter also outlines roles and responsibilities, facilitating accountability and efficient resource allocation.

A robust communication plan is provided, featuring structured status calls, phase tollgates, and cadence calls. This plan is designed to keep all stakeholders informed and engaged throughout the project lifecycle. The template also includes various tools like empathy maps, persona templates, and opportunity maps, which are essential for capturing user insights and identifying potential opportunities.
