RESUMOO presente estudo foi desenvolvido com base nas estratégias adotadas por corporações da área automobilística que pretendem alcançar diferencial competitivo através do uso design e dos investimentos em centros de pesquisa e desenvolvimento (P&D). O propósito deste trabalho foi identificar os fundamentos da gestão do design na cultura empresarial automobilística, aliada aos processos de design que estreitam o relacionamento entre marca e consumidor. Bem como, a inovação tecnológica oriunda da intensidade de P&D para o desenvolvimento de novos produtos e serviços na criação de um portfólio sólido perante os concorrentes. Nesse contexto, foi necessário destacar os benefícios da união entre design e gestão para a vantagem corporativa, assim como os tipos de inovação resultantes da cooperabilidade entre subsidiárias, fornecedores e atuantes da indústria automotiva. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Gestão do Design, Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento, Indústria Automotiva ABSTRACTThe present study was developed based on the strategies adopted by automobile corporations that intend to achieve competitive differential through the use of design and investments in research and development centers (R&D). The purpose of this work was to identify the fundamentals of design management in the automotive business culture, allied to the design processes that narrow the relationship between brand and consumer, as well as the technological innovation derived from R&D intensity for the development of new products and services in creating a solid portfolio vis-à-vis competitors. In this context, it was necessary to highlight the benefits of the union between design and management for corporate advantage, as well as the types of innovation resulting from the cooperability between subsidiaries, suppliers and actuators of the automotive industry. KEYWORDS: Design Management, Research and Development, Automotive Industry

Purpose – Researchers at the University of Virginia's Darden Business School and the Design Management Institute report on field research into how widely design thinking is being adopted in leading companies and how effectively is it being adapted in a variety of industries. Design/methodology/approach – They interviewed boundary spanners – leaders who operated at the intersection of design and business – in a number of Fortune 100 organizations and focused on ten organizations where design thinking was having an impact on practice. Findings – They found that design thinking was, in fact, also a problem solving process, not just an innovation process. Research limitations/implications – Examples are anecdotal. Practical implications – Learning from design tools – such as, ethnographic interviewing, customer journey mapping and job-to-be-done analysis – encouraged team members to stay involved with the problem long enough to reframe the opportunity. Originality/value – The highest payoff from adopting a design-thinking approach was not necessarily in identifying a solution, but rather in innovating how people worked together to envision and implement the new possibilities they discovered.

AbstractDesign Thinking is an innovative approach that solves concrete problems and develops new products. Its constant spreading in industry, business, and non-profit organizations raises the question to which extent this approach may be of importance for German vocational schools. There is an increasing debate among scientists about design thinking in educational contexts, in which different authors regard it as useful for curriculum and school development as well as for coping with everyday school life. To assess the importance of design thinking for German vocational schools, pre-service teachers have tackled vocational school issues with design thinking. The paper concludes that design thinking is indeed of interest to vocational schools and that further work is recommended.

Industrial design as profession has begun to expand its scope in business practices with the recent developments in design management, design thinking, and technology. However, curricula of industrial design studio remain traditional and mainly focuses on designing products. In fact, design management and design thinking go beyond product design and expand design’s scope to establishing business strategies, design innovation and service design by positioning humans and their needs at the center. Besides, the technological shift happened through Industry 4.0 enables to adapt IT hardware into systems, products and services, and make them smart and unified. To keep up with these paradigm changes and prepare our students to the rapidly changing business environment, we initiated a Smart Product Service System (Smart-PSS) design project with the 3rd-grade students of Bahçeşehir University in the 2019-2020 Spring semester during which online education had just become a part of our lives. In this article, we present three student projects as case studies of Smart-PSSs designed in three stages as system design, product design, and interface design. As a result, students gain a more holistic approach toward the design process, acknowledge the new expansions of industrial design, and its transformative role for businesses.

This project is dedicated on understanding how expertise can have an affect on developing the Design Agent skills. It was based on interviews and observation conducted in five design offices located in Londrina (Paraná, Brasil), through this research was possible to identify which are the techniques and methods most used by professional, from both Graphic and Product Design area, and therefore ascertain how Strategic Design Management and Design Thinking actuate on improving professional’s skills on the innovation process of the companies. It took as a basis the studies of several authors, such as Brown (2009), Cross (2007), Demarchi (2011), Lawson (2006) and Martin (2009), which discourse, among other issues, about Design Thinking and its implications. By the use of ethnography methodology, the data was collected, analyzed and organized into comparative charts, relating the novice Design Agents with expert Design Agents. It was proved that experience can hold two distinct aspects; A positive one, that comes as a result from the holistic vision and ensure sensibility to the Design Agent to handle situations; And an unfavorable one, once the expert is strictly guided by intuition, it sets aside creativity hampering the innovation process. Besides it was possible to verify that although the enterprises and the Design Agents work using different techniques and methods, visual tools such as mind maps, sketches, visual panels and mockups are seen as essential resources for all the professionals.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/IFDP.2016.2288

Our complex present environment calls for new talents and skills of contemporary managers such as creativity, critical thinking attitude, agile and open innovation, focus on engagement and empowerment. The recent buzz of “Design Thinking” used in management as a creative tool is a good example of the interest being pertinent for leaders and decision makers. Understanding designerly ways of thinking becomes more and more strategic for leadership. And, design managers have to adapt to this new context of the increased importance of Designers skills in Management Science. In this track, we discuss topics on: Understanding how companies learn and absorb design management knowledge through design experience within and beyond the corporate design function; Exploring the influence of design management knowledge on how companies manages design and technological questions; Providing evidence of the pertinence of adopting a “user oriented design process” for design management learning in order to fit the needs of different users and evidence for user-centred approach to DM knowledge learning from different stakeholder groups’ viewpoints, including social design and social inclusion.
