title:Disruptive Design:improbable Insights and Counterintuitive Ideas
June 20th @ 17.30
As much as we might desire it, the future we face will not be predictable. We are living in a fast-changing and uncertain time––a disruptive age. And we are entering this new global order with a way of seeing and thinking better suited for a world now several centuries behind us. A world that could be explained in simpler terms, when you could expect and carefully plan for gradual shifts in the status quo. But the scale of the challenges we face and the accelerating speed of innovation demands a disruptive design approach––a way of thinking what no one else is thinking, and doing what no one else is doing. This presentation is about how to use a disruptive approach to design (or redesign) your business, your community, or your life to in ways that create new value.
