Z-Shaped Thinkers

The document discusses "Z-shaped thinkers" and their approach to challenges. Z-shaped thinkers challenge assumptions, reframe problems, explore multiple perspectives, and synthesize information to envision new opportunities. They approach problems in different ways compared to traditional linear thinkers. The document provides examples of how z-shaped thinkers might reframe design problems from focusing solely on form and function to exploring user needs and experiences.
