Introduction
In the age of AI and high uncertainty, business leaders are increasingly faced with a myriad of challenges and opportunities for which existing strategies and approaches no longer apply. Leaders must be able to encourage and harness new ideas and drive them forward to create actionable innovation. Actionable innovation requires leaders who can power their teams to explore, adapt, and engage with emerging technologies. All levels of an organization, from executives to middle managers to individual contributors must be able to “connect the dots” to ensure the best ideas for innovation are translated into work being done, that is aligned to the overall strategy, and is adding value to the business. And it starts with leaders themselves learning to use innovation to power their own individual aspirations in designing their life.
“Designing Innovation into Action: Life, Leadership and AI” has been developed and is delivered by innovation thought leaders and industry experts from Stanford University, Silicon Valley, and beyond. The highly interactive program explores the critical mindsets and skillsets required of business leaders to drive innovation in their organizations. Anchored around the Stanford methodology for design thinking, this practical, action-based learning experience provides a recipe that immediately allows participants to apply their insights and learning in their own lives, as well as begin to embed practices for their team and their organizations.
