This is a comprehensive guide to the IDEO/Stanford d.school five-phase methodology: Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype, and Test. It includes workshop templates for empathy mapping, user interviews, POV statements, and How Might We questions, plus structured formats for running brainstorming sessions with your team. Use it when you're tackling user-centered design problems and need the scaffolding to run proper discovery work rather than jumping straight to solutions. The templates are detailed enough to actually use in workshops, not just theoretical overviews. It's built for facilitating design sprints and teaching teams to reframe problems before solutioning.
