Not only does our research contribute to field of design thinking, it also adds value and supports researchers and practitioners in the fields innovation and innovation
management by establishing what is anecdotal and what is scholarly. This paper will be refined and developed further leading up to the final submission of the BAM Conference, where we also to welcome feedback on specific areas.
