Innovation is no longer a luxury. It is a skillset, a mindset, and a superpower for anyone who wants to thrive in a world shaped by rapid change. This seminar is designed to ignite that superpower.We begin by exploring the major global forces and emerging technologies that are reshaping how we live, work, and build businesses. Students will understand the opportunities that come with AI, automation, digital platforms, and new customer behaviors, and how these shifts open doors for bold, creative problem-solving.From there, we move into the heart of the course: the methodologies that drive real innovation in the real world. Students will learn and apply the principles behind Design Thinking, Lean Startup, and Agile — three complementary approaches that help teams empathize with users, test ideas fast, learn from evidence, and execute with speed and clarity.The seminar concludes with one of the most powerful innovation frameworks in modern business: Working Backwards, the mechanism Amazon uses to create customer-obsessed products and services. Students will work in teams to craft their own Press Release and FAQ for a new initiative, translating insights into a compelling vision and an actionable plan.This is a hands-on, high-energy, optimistic course designed to empower students to think big, act boldly, and build solutions that matter.
