Leveraging the Power of Design Thinking, Creativity, and Innovation.
OVERVIEW
As problem-solving approach revolves around human needs, design thinking focuses on the problem first before moving on to the solution. A culture that empowers employees requires more than just throwing money at the situation. Leaders need to invest in listening to their employees and understanding their pain points before moving on to solutions.
One of the most common employee problems is lack of autonomy, flexibility, and control over personal work. Using the design thinking practice of listening, empathizing, and defining the problem into a question, leaders can understand what aspects of independence and control make people both happy and unhappy in their work. This course aims at educating the participants on the power of design thinking, creativity, and innovation.
