A design thinking workshop is a facilitated, time-boxed collaborative session applying design thinking methodology to solve a specific problem. Over 1-3 days, a cross-functional team moves through: Empathize (understand user needs), Define (clarify the problem), Ideate (generate solutions), Prototype (build rough mockups), and Test (validate with users). The facilitator guides the process, manages time, ensures inclusion, and prevents the workshop from devolving into opinion contests or solution fixation.
