Become a Design Thinker
In Become a Design Thinker Podcast, we will explore life reinvention stories in different contexts from the perspective of Design Thinking, and see how the lessons learnt from these stories can be applied in our daily work and life.
Design thinking is the designers’ mindset in the design process – how they discover the root problems and test possible solutions to keep making improvements. We will be uploading new episodes every two weeks. Our goal is to empower you with this design-thinking mindset so that you can reinvent your work and life by design.
"Become a Design Thinker" is your decision to step out for a change and to become who you aspire to be.

Stewardship: Design Your Capability Assets into Serving Actions
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Humility is the mindset of making ourselves available to listen, contribute, and support others without putting ourselves in the spotlight or over-deprecating our capabilities.
The next level of humility is to turn this mindset into an actionable practice: stewardship.
Stewardship is about taking responsibility for what has been entrusted to us and using it wisely for a purpose beyond ourselves. In our careers, we accumulate many forms of capital: knowledge, skills, experience, and network.
All these are our gifts. Our knowledge, skills, experience, and network are not developed entirely by ourselves. They are shaped by the opportunities we receive, the challenges we overcome, and the people who teach, guide, and support us along the way. Our achievements may reflect our hard work, but they also reflect the contributions of many others who have helped us become who we are today.
Stewardship is the awareness that we are only the managers and trustees of these gifts, not their owners. We have a responsibility to use them wisely, not simply to preserve our own success or strengthen our personal position, but to serve others and nurture their growth. The question is no longer just, “What have I achieved with what I have?” It becomes, “How can I use what I have received to help others grow?”
