Why This Handbook Matters?

At Impaktly, we believe design thinking is integral part of the solution as companies search for new, responsible ways of creating value. Design thinking helps translate complex issues and goals into concrete action, break down silos between organizational units, strengthen psychological safety and innovation culture, and demonstrate through example that change is possible. Design thinking alone will not solve the systemic challenge, but it provides both the tools and the pathways for building a sustainable growth culture.

Grounded in case examples

Spanning chemicals, food, retail, household goods, tools, and gaming, the six case studies in this handbook show how companies apply design thinking to tackle sustainability, each in ways shaped by their industry's unique challenges and opportunities.
