This we may term as 'serious play' or a very good alternative of 'rapid prototyping'. The idea is to play around with something long enough till we get the essence of the whole thing and then do it better for the benefit of all. In this how Design Thinking and Maintenance are related and as I call it these two subjects are just the mirror image of each other. One can't be done without the other. But unfortunately, very few of us understand this and tend to treat these two important subjects in utter isolation.

But my father asked me to take it apart and figure out what was wrong with it. I then put it back together again -- Fixed. I so enjoyed it, I was never again able to get a clear advice from those tests that are suppose to recommend what area of work you should go into. I would enjoy social work as much as I would enjoy being an engineer :)Eli Stefanskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18407613066783767800noreply@blogger.com
