Reviews
David E. Smith, Center for Design Innovation:
The process of design thinking can be applied to the normally conservative and entrenched public, social, and educational sectors to start to solve big messy problems.

Reinhold Steinbeck, Center for Design Research, Stanford University:
There is no doubt in my mind that Jeanne Liedtka is a leader in the fields of design thinking, human-centered design, and innovation in general.
Toni Ungaretti, Johns Hopkins School of Education:
This is a timely work in that it parallels interest in applying effective business principles and practices to the nonprofit and government sector. It also aligns business with the idea of doing well and doing good.
