Prepare ourselves to have adaptability and agility that will help us to make our business viable in every crisis. We should have knowledge and understanding on all creative management aspects, that is to say, we should be able to perform ‘human’ centric problem-solving, not ‘me’! Human means ‘customers’, ‘users’, ‘employees’ and all ‘stakeholders’ who involved with the problem(s) we are solving. By not put ourselves as a center of everything, we have opened doors to opportunities, new ideas as well as fostered collaborations among stakeholders. We could gain supports from these people in solving the problems and win the businesses.
Further, it is also a good start of delivering greater experiences to customers, users, employees as well as all stakeholders. Design thinking is a tool that we can use to empathize, define and ideate new and creative solutions and gain collaborations to establish and make the new prototype happen with less resistance from stakeholders and may gain supports and adoption from advocacy when test or implement the idea.
