How to Think, Create, and Lead in Unconventional Ways | Sarah Stein Greenberg

This week’s conversation is with Sarah Stein Greenberg, the Executive Director of the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design at Stanford University (the “d.school”). For over a decade, she has helped lead the d.school to nurture creative thinkers and doers and help spread the methods of design. Sarah teaches at the intersection of design and social impact - she likes to tinker with old educational formats and adapt them to today’s learners. She has taught the d.school’s foundational class Design Thinking Bootcamp, an experimental course called Design Thinking for Public Policy Innovators, and the long-running, high impact Entrepreneurial Design for Extreme Affordability, whose students have gone on to design products and services that have helped over 100 million people worldwide. Sarah is also the author of Creative Acts for Curious People: How to Think, Create, and Lead in Uncoventional Ways. It’s a timely, highly visual resource for people who seek to choose curiosity in the face of uncertainty, filled with ideas and 80 innovative exercises around the art of learning and discovery. So, this is a conversation about learning how to better define the problem before you try solving it and I think you’re going to love it … ---- Please support our partners!
