Having the passion and drive for design thinking I really struggled finding a way to use it in my Leadership class. Most of the time leadership days consist of planning, holding meetings, and making posters. How can design thinking fit into that schedule? That was the challenge I was facing and I have been determined to ideate a solution.
After almost a month I realized that every decision that is made in ASB can be done through the design thinking process. The students have become really great at identifying the needed steps in the design processes to complete the task they are facing. It has been amazing as well to watch them change from just making decisions based on their personal thoughts and wants to really taking others into account. Often times the students will be discussing options for a decision and they will stop and think about all "users" and their needs. It has really helped to change the culture of the campus.
