The course will introduce the Design Thinking mindset to MBA students and support it with tools, processes and strategies to solve business problems with a non-traditional problem-solving approach. Design thinking uses quantitative information to inform qualitative decision making. Rooted in the formal disciplines of design, the course works with core principles of creativity, discovery, curiosity, deferred judgment, process discipline and positive human collaboration. Students will gain experience using the design thinking process through hands-on learning, reading and team-based collaborative projects.
