MGT 601 - Design Thinking for Adaptive Problem Solving
The course emphasizes the practice of design thinking to address complex problems. This process involves not only identifying complex problems, creatively articulating the issues and pain points that surround those problems, and then iteratively seeking unique solutions that positively affect the organization and all its stakeholders. Through this process, students gain a deeper understanding of the organization as a complex system, as well as an appreciation for the cultural characteristics that recognizes the contributions of all organizational members.
