Design Thinking, Like Yoga, Is Mindset, Not Product

Once again, Grant Lichtman reminds schools of what is important — to thine own self be true. This is such an essential truth for any institution (especially schools) to embrace if it hopes to thrive.

Schools that possess a “design thinking mindset are institutions that set the trends.” Does your school have a design thinking mindset? tlb
