The focus of this course is to learn about the creative mindset and particular practices that enable innovation. After establishing the mindset, we will explore creativity and the sources of innovative ideas. Because believing that one can be creative is the first step to becoming an innovative thinker and leader, we delve into strategies for enhancing creative confidence and instilling it in others. From there, we will introduce the design thinking process, which is a time-tested approach for practicing innovation. The next sessions will explore the various aspects of the design thinking process, from need finding and empathy to generating insights to prototyping and experimenting. Lastly, we will delve into how to create and implement an innovative mindset in a work environment and how to influence and inspire others. This module concludes with a project that allows students to put design thinking into practice in a project of their own.
