As it is believed that all managers already do think like a designer, it is questioned how design thinking is implemented in the management of the Schiedam port area redevelopment.

Subsequently, the case study demonstrates how it is not always necessary to implement every design thinking theme.

This research answers this question, whilst demonstrating in which way the elements are recognized. Analysis shows how different elements are recognized by different interviewees who are part of the organization, and how the change process is experienced in different, sometimes contrasting, ways. ...
