enjoy a drink or two with his friends in the evening.

Let’s show some ROI

Executives need to know (1) what design thinking is and (2) how it meets business goals.
● Find a feasible challenge or opportunity
● Create your elevator pitch: “Design thinking isn’t a philosophy. It’s a problem-solving strategy employees can learn to
improve business processes. With the right people teaching it, the company will see more profitable and innovative options
appear when making decisions that can cost a lot of time and money.”
● Demonstrate how similar companies or industries used design thinking and include numbers to
show the results (See upcoming UXPin ebook for examples!)
● Pitch a trial pilot project, ideally a 3 month or less project so you can quickly return with the results
● Ask for executive sponsorship
