This document outlines a design thinking workshop conducted by Mydhili Bayapuneedi and Praneet Koppula. The workshop guides participants through the 5 steps of design thinking: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test. Participants are split into pairs and groups to interview a "user" from their group, define insights and problems, generate ideas, build quick prototypes, and test them with feedback. The document provides instructions and examples for each step. The overall goal is to empower participants to create meaningful products and services for users through the human-centered design thinking process.
