Design Thinking has become a buzzword over the past decade, but what is it? And why is it essential for entrepreneurs and business leaders to embrace? With the problems confronting society currently, the process of thinking creatively is now more important than ever. Heavy Chef invited two luminaries in the South African design space to unpack the process of design thinking. Dr Carla Enslin, co-founder of IIE-Vega School, and Richard Perez, Founding Director at d-school Afrika, Cape Town, joined MC, Fred Roed on the Heavy Chef stage in June 2023.
