"Empathy is the centerpiece of a human-centered design process. The Empathize mode is the work you do to understand people, within the context of your design challenge. It is your effort to understand the way they do things and why, their physical and emotional needs, how  they think about world, and what is meaningful to them. " An Introduction to Design Thinking PROCESS GUIDE


"Empathic design is a user-centered design approach that pays attention to the user's feelings toward a product.  Empathic Design - Wikipedia

 

"As a style of thinking, design thinking is generally considered the ability to combine empathy for the context of a problem, creativity in the generation of insights and solutions, and rationality to analyze and fit solutions to the context."– Design Thinking - Wikipedia
