Design Thinking

It can be a process where a simple napkin and a pen can be used to make an entrepreneur out of any person. One of the best benefits comes from the initial idea generation via brainstorming. A process that used efficiently, allows people with multitude and variety of ideas to collaborate together to generate one brilliant game-changing solution. The way brainstorming can work well is to allow people to develop individual ideas and solutions before working in a group and combining the ideas.
