Design thinking is a comprehensive management approach with a powerful toolset that enables organizations to address complex, dynamic, interrelated, and multiple-stakeholder problems emerging within the context of digital transformation initiatives. The challenges of digital transformation, however, are not just related to the technical aspects of technology development or adoption. Managers need to acquire a designdriven mindset to drive the transition to a digital mode of operations and value creation. The conference offers participants the opportunity to engage with a team of internationally renowned experts and get familiarized with the ways of using design thinking in managing digital transformation initiatives. The discussion will focus specifically on the need and the challenges of using a design thinking approach in addressing the opportunities for private and public organizations that arise as significant new technologies emerge – including the technologies that will emerge next. It will be valuable for managers, technology experts, business practitioners, and scholars interested in developing actionable insights on issues related to the adoption of business-critical and transformative digital technologies. |
