Empathy Leads Design

Design thinking is a problem-solving approach focused on user needs. It encourages empathy, experimentation, and iterative development, making it essential for 2025 product innovation.

Five Stages of Design Thinking

1. Empathize: Understand users’ experiences and pain points.
2. Define: Clearly articulate problems to solve.
3. Ideate: Generate creative solutions without constraints.
4. Prototype: Build quick, tangible models to test ideas.
5. Test: Gather feedback and refine solutions iteratively.

Companies using design thinking report faster innovation cycles and higher user satisfaction.
