Ways to describe this nascent paradigm vary — Banny Banerjee at Stanford Institute of Design talks about «design thinking»; at the Experience Design Group in Stockholm, Rolf Hughes and I
consider it as a trans - disciplinary form of «disruptive
innovation» — but held in common is the belief that designers should be critical thinkers and strategists first, capable of addressing cross-disciplinary problems by designing the social, political, economic and
educational «systems» that give them greater reach, responsibility, influence and relevance.
