Abstract

Increasingly organizations are turning to off-site design thinking professional development programs as a way to grow design competencies in their workforce.

(2) To describe a process for constructing design thinking assessment tools. The assessment created is informed by an exploration of existing design thinking Executive Education programs and tested in a large organization committed to using design thinking.
