Career Clinic and "Applying Design Thinking to your Career or Profession"
Design Think drives positive social and economic outcomes succeeding through rigorous creativity, critical inquiry, and ethics informed by respect for people, nature, and the world.
We introduce two acolytes, Rosanna Kurrer, Co-Founder of Digital Leadership Institute and proponent of MIT's THINK along with Patrick Wheeler, Director of DLI and proponent of Stanford's d.school
We share how we can apply the 'discipline of innovation and creativity' directly in our lives and careers, how we can grow ourselves and solve problems we did not even know existed for ourselves and our colleagues.
