Participants will learn about strategic and operational considerations in generating innovative products and services, as well as developing leadership skills to guide teams. They will facilitate the application of a human-centred design approach to an innovation project; working with a team to refine a project brief, design research, conduct interviews, generate insights, create a problem statement, and pitch a proposal.
The leadership program begins with a two-day intensive workshop in which participants will be introduced to four fundamental leadership themes: adaptive leadership, authentic leadership, innovation leadership, and the leader as coach. Over the course of the semester they will learn to see themselves as a leader, understand what it means to be a leader, and have the skills to put that understanding into practice.
