Come hear Roger Martin speak about design thinking. Martin’s recent book “The Design of Business” explores why design thinking is the next competitive advantage for organizations. Daniel Pink noted that Martin “helps you enlist the power of design thinking to transform your organization and yourself.”

In addition to publishing several books, Martin is dean of the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto and an adviser on strategy to CEOs of several major global corporations. He writes extensively on design and is a regular columnist for BusinessWeek.com’s Innovation and Design channel. He also is a regular contributor to the Washington Post and the Financial Times.

We’re incredibly lucky to have such frequent access to world-class thought leaders, and this presentation will be especially great, so please make every effort to attend!

Beyond- A Discussion

I started this blog as a place to watch and showcase the contributions of those looking for ways to continue and push what Design can be in today’s society. I see that Design has great potential to positively impact our world, and a large part of this move forward requires us to examine our ideas and roles from every angle.

Throughout my observations, I plan to especially keep an eye out for students who are looking to participate in this conversation. I hope this can be a forum that is not only devoted to capturing and disseminating the work that is breaking traditional boundaries of disciplines, problem solving, and design thinking, but to also be a place where current works and ideas can be discussed, critiqued and developed.
