Harvard professor Clayton Christensen used the "milkshake analogy" to illustrate the "jobs to be done" theory. He discovered that customers purchased milkshakes to enhance their commutes, showcasing the significance of understanding the specific tasks customers employ products to accomplish. This highlights the constraints of conventional research and underscores the necessity of grasping customers' underlying needs.

Dr. Li Jiang, a distinguished professor at Stanford, is renowned for his expertise in design thinking. He emphasises empathy as the foundation of effective design, ensuring solutions deeply address users' needs and challenges. He guides students through the key steps of design thinking: empathise, define, ideate, prototype, and test.
