Abstract: Abstract Workplace innovation and its relevance to health, well-being and prosperity continues to be a positive response to the challenging features of our time. Following a brief review of existing research on the application of design thinking, we focus on its contributions to workplace innovation. This chapter proposes that design thinking or human-centred design and its focus on creating more desirable futures captures the imagination, energy and human ingenuity to stimulate, nurture and shape new ways of thinking and working, delivering collaborative new improved solutions across multiple organisational contexts and enabling workplace innovation.
