 Challenge & selection 

 The main challenge here is how I can share the best tools to apply design thinking efficiently in my   project . So as a leader of the project I need to help my team to better understanding their clients needs   and requirements because when they better understand their clients , the problems and challenges can   be solved easily to get better results and we can save effort , time and money . 

 The third tool mind mapping which is a creative tool of note thinking that I can list all my ideas in free- form . I see that mind mapping is a powerful tool for implementation design thinking that allows me to   be more creative by converts a long list of information into a colorful , memorable and highly organized   diagram that works in line with the brain 's natural way of doing things . Mind mapping is used to look for   patterns and insights to lead to create more creative solutions and ideas to my project challenges . I   choose this tool for my challenge because of the following reasons , it makes me able to gather data and   ideas easily . And help my team to think and provide ideas of how we will prepare all the clients needs   and requirements and how to apply them in the project and to successfully deliver the project to the   clients on time . Also , it ’s easy to add ideas or remove ideas in the map . 

 Application 

 I used mind mapping , I gathered all my team into the meeting room , on a big white board , I started to   laying out all data that I collected and project challenges for my team to see . After that , I asked them to   distribute in a groups each group is represent its part in the project .   then , I distributed colorful markers   and sticky notes and I asked my team to add their ideas into the board based on their part in project . I   gave them half an hour to read the ideas depending on each part of project . Then , I asked them to take   notes of what idea is fit and what does not fit with the challenges .   After this step , we started our   discussion and move into insight statement and translate the insights into design criteria . 

 Insight & Approach 

 By applying the mind mapping tool , my team identified our challenges and we thought of ideas to better   serve the client needs and we discover many solutions to solve our problems in project easier than   before . Now every time we phase a problem we go back to our mind mapping and review the existing   ideas and think about new ideas as well , and this method helped us a lot during the project to think in   creative way and to think together as a team and improved our communication skills . Moreover , this   course helped me in real life to follow the 4 steps process of design thinking and apply it to my project :   ( 1 ) what is ? ( 2 ) what if ? ( 3 ) what wows ? And ( 4 ) what works ? And I will recommend me collogues to   apply for this course . 

 Since I leaned the most powerful tool of design thinking , next time I would use the mind mapping to all   projects I have and I will advise my colleagues in the company to apply it in their projects and I will   explain them the mind mapping tool and how to apply it successfully into their projects to better   understand the client ’s needs and to think creative while solving the problems .
