BUSB-B 520: DESIGN THINKING FOR MANAGERS (1.5 credits)

About

We are all creative and our creative skills can be enhanced through learning and practice. This class will improve your skills in innovation and design thinking. This course is also based on the premise that rational analytic approaches to managerial decisions (a "decision attitude") form a valuable part of your education; however, ill-defined, ill-structured decisions are commonplace in your day-to-day working lives. Approaching ill-structured decisions (or so-called "wicked problems") requires a different approach that design thinking addresses. As Einstein said, "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them."
