“Design Thinking is the best way to leverage human potential and collective intelligence to generate creative and innovative solutions for complex problems.”

Max Santos, Coordinator at Escola Design Thinking

Design Thinking is a practical, human-centered approach that accelerates innovation and solves complex problems. To understand design thinking and start working or living using this mindset, we need to internalize three basic values – EMPATHY, COLLABORATION and EXPERIMENTATION.

Changing your mental and working model means to rise from your chair and go to the street. It means working in groups, to co-create, to really listen to each other and build on the idea of others – and of course, to take risks.

First of all, we design solutions that are desirable. By testing and iterating our solutions we deliver appropriate, actionable, and tangible strategies through three separate lenses: feasibility, viability and desirability. The solutions that emerge at the end of the Human-Centered Design should hit the overlap of those three lenses; they need to be Desirable, Feasible, and Viable.

The Program

DESIGN THINKING FOR BUSINESS INNOVATION is an intensive program that accelerates a team’s ability to innovate, while enhancing creative skills and bringing value to your organisation. This exclusive program offers access to high-end approaches and tools, which are needed to tackle the present-day challenges faced by organisations.


Design Thinking is a MINDSET, a practical approach to accelerate innovation and solve problems from a human perspective. By challenging hierarchical barriers and the Cartesian mindset, Design Thinking offers the necessary conditions for fresh ideas to emerge, forcing our brains to step out of its comfort zone and, henceforth, perceive desirable and sustainable futures.

WE BELIEVE IN BUSINESS INNOVATION POTENTIAL!

Design thinking values

To understand design thinking and start working or living using this mindset, we need to internalize three basic values – EMPATHY, COLLABORATION and EXPERIMENTATION..

  • Empathy

    It is a concept on the rise, often talked about but little practiced. That’s because being empathic is not easy. Empathy means to deeply understand the psychological perspective of the other – putting yourself in someone’s shoes.

  • Collaboration

    Think together and co-create in multidisciplinary teams so that the quality of thinking and understanding multiplies.

  • Experimentation

    This means leaving the realm of talking about ideas: instead, testing solutions, experimenting – really living with the ideas and business assumptions to avoid problems during the implementation phase.
