Keynote:
Rethinking Design Thinking: Making Sense of the Future that has Already Arrived
With vast confusion around the subject in the marketplace, GK shares his perspective on how Humantific makes sense of the already-arriving future of design / design thinking. Stepping outside the pervasive industry marketing narrative, Rethinking Design Thinking points out the need for a new form of readiness to better take on the scale and complexity of organizational and societal challenges now emerging. Part expose, part history lesson and part provocation this book clearly makes the case for more robust and adaptive methods beyond the assumptions of product, service and experience creation. GK will present some of the lessons learned from making the book as well some its key recommendations.
