Overview

Design thinking uses customer input and transdisciplinary collaboration to erase silos and reimagine archaic processes, opening opportunities to build smart system tools for decarbonization of operations and supply chains. To kick off the webinar series we pose the question to design thinking leaders from IBM and ASU – How can design be used to transform the culture and operations of an organization to embrace AI, blockchain and other smart tools and thrive in the New Carbon Economy? Learn the principals of design thinking, its incredible power to free your creative thinking and hear how companies can use it to transform their carbon footprint and impact on the planet.
