Who is a Design Thinker?
A Design Thinker is someone who uses the Design Thinking process to solve problems and find creative
innovative solutions in any field or domain. For example, you could use Design Thinking to solve problems
in the arts, social sciences, law, medicine, engineering, business, and so on. It could even be used to solve
problems at home or in your neighbourhood.

What is Innovation?

Innovation is the process of developing new ideas, processes, products, services,
or solutions that create significant positive impact and value. It entails turning
innovative ideas into real results that improve efficiency and effectiveness or solve
unmet requirements. It might be as easy as making a tiny modification or as difficult
as entirely redesigning an entire system or developing new marketing strategies
with a new product. Simplest example of innovation is the light bulb.
In comparison to Innovation, Invention occurs only once in a while; however, each
Invention may produce millions of Innovative products. For example, the invention
of the wheel produced and continues to produce Innovative products like clocks
and watches with gears and wheels to measure time accurately; for the benefit
of mankind. Innovation is in how an invention can be used to solve problems; thus,
Design pursues Creativity of Innovation.
