Challenge & Selection 

 Being a research scholar , I was bit confused in my selected field of Behavioural Finance , which 

 title or topic should I select in particular ? – well here , the technique of mind mapping helped 

 me a lot in selecting the particular topic , from the whole lot . Well mind - mapping , has been one 

 of the most unique and powerful technique in the design thinker ’s toolbox . It helps by 

 identifying the patterns that are prevailing in the market , it can help to create useful insights , 

 that further helped me personally in getting solutions that are more of sustainable and creative 

 in nature . 

 Application 

 Firstly , I tried to self - introspect and wrote down all the major activities and elements that are 

 involved in the Behavioural Finance . So here am going through the phase I i.e. , understanding 

 and accessing what is the current reality in the field . Here , I tried to identify the deep insights 

 and the current patterns that are prevailing in the field and started collecting the data for the 

 “ What is ” for all concepts . And if do this apt . we can get the best options available – as this is 

 the pivotal point in the design thinking process . 

 Here I identified that there are various studies and theories proposed by various psychologists , 

 finance professionals and many Noble Laureates , so it was quite exhausting to go through all 

 these major theories and then identifying what the current time demands , which of theory is 

 old and stale , and how I can get the best out of it . Data collecting was also a difficult task , as 

 we know that many of the websites are not reliable and authentic , but then collecting them was 

 quite necessary because then only we can derive to any conclusion . 

 Here what I found that while doing mind mapping , what I actually was doing was – applying 

 the deduction approach or the filter down approach , wherein there are many options and I need 

 to select some of the best ones . And also , here I can calculate the opportunity cost that would 

 be involved if I chose any of the one out of many . 

 Insight & Approach 

 The things I have learnt , varied from one vast pole to another . Naming , I got to know what 

 were the things that I was knowing in this field of Behavioural Finance , and what were the 

 things I need to work upon as they were the topics , I was n’t much aware about . Here 

 furthermore , I also encountered the difference between the topics in which I want to research 

 and what were the topics wherein I can just teach to my students . So yes , Min Mapping as a 

 technique was quite helpful to me , in deciding my Ph . D thesis title .
