Two most popular models of DT from IDEO and the Stanford d.school

• 6 stages design thinking process by IDEO
• 5 stages design thinking process by Stanford d.school

In both the models, it starts with user(empathy) and ends with user(validation).

DT not a linear process from problem to solution but a process with series of divergent and convergent steps

But we need two more stages inspire which address the question of Why design thinking? and scale aims at ensuring that the impact is realized to the idea's truest potential
