Design Thinking Assignment - Reflection

 Challenge 

 My challenge is to convince people to reduce their organic waste in their houses 

 by descomposting it . We are developing an electrical domestic composter which is able 

 to reduce the organic waste , generated in the kitchen , in between 60 % and 80 % and it 

 takes no more than 72 hours . The compost generated by our device has got a lot of 

 nutrients and can be used for growing plants and trees . Our challenge is to create the 

 habit of decomposting organic waste in every house we can , and show that it can be 

 extremely important for our planet and vey handful to use on gardens and organic food 

 growers . 

 Selection 

 Storytelling is the chosen tool . It is able to cause a really good impact on the 

 people , helping them to visualize the importance and benefits of decomposting their 

 organic waste at home . By adressing them individually they will be able to feel that they 

 are really important in this process and they are trully a part of it . We want every 

 individual to be inspired through the current scenario , making them feel that they are 

 contributing for the environment ’s future by reducing their waste , and in exchange they 

 can get the best nutrients for their plants and maybe grow their own food . The chosen 

 tool can help to make everyone feel and understand the purpose of the product . 

 Application 

 By using the storytelling tool we were able to tell our customers what is the real 

 impact of organic waste to our planet . Showing the percentages of organic waste 

 generated in the last decade by humans caused a huge impact and could make them 

 feel responsible for it too . Bringing this responsability to them and making them to feel 

 as part of it gave us a big chance to introduce our product and consequently the habit 

 of decomposting their organic waste at home . Some of them got really excited to be 

 parto f something with a bigger purpose , other enjoyed a lot the idea of producing their 

 own compost for their organic gardens . The story generated had a very positive impact 

 on their lives and was able to get mosto f the desired effect . 

 Insight 

 By applying the storytelling to the adressed problem I was able to feel part of 

 something bigger too . It caused a big impact on myself as well , making me feel 

 responsible to go further and help people with their organic waste too , showing them 

 that every human being must care about the waste they generate and that it has a big 

 impact to our planet . It came to me that I must work hard to make our product accessible 

 to everyone . 

 Approach 

 For the next time I would use storytelling with a visualization tool ! By using both 

 of them I am sure I would have a bigger impact . By showing to their eyes what our waste 

 really cause to our planet I would certainly make them feel we are in trouble if we do n’t 

 start reducing our waste now . Sometimes one picture is worth a Thousand words .
