In this article, Linda discusses how to transform concepts of design education to the the business world in three applications:

1. Front end: Testing products & services before budget is spent on development; getting data early while there is still mobility to hypothesize and change approaches.
2. Teams: Forming cohesive teams quickly (within and across disciplines); make information understandable and accessible in cross-disciplined teams; facilitate facilitation: deepen transparency, effectiveness, trust and alignment.
3. Clients and Customer Relationship: Creating process framed case studies to showcase successes; design compelling presentations.
