We are often stuck in the old way of doing our work. If you want to realize the
full potential of your organization, you must operate differently. This requires changing your mindset within your:
Organizational model
Systems and processes
Talent and capabilities
To take a leap and change the way you approach problem-solving and innovation, you can
embrace Design Thinking.
Design Thinking can help you reframe how you approach problems, conversations, and
relationships at your organization. In Procurement, everything we do involves considering how we can support our
“end users” with an empathic perspective to solve real problems for the business.
This handbook will share the Design Thinking framework from a Procurement
point-of-view.
You will also learn:
The 5 Action Phases of the Design Thinking Process
Exclusive supporting research from “Fifth Generation
Purchasing: When Pace Meets Power”
Design Thinking Relevant to Procurement
Practical Ways Design Thinking Adds Value to Procurement
In addition, this handbook comes with a series of templates you can use to get started
with Design Thinking.
