This IAP workshop models distilled skillsets, toolkits and visioning from art-making practices for effectively arriving at unanticipated outcomes as well as strategic methods for iteration and disruption that can be integrated into corporate and engineering innovation structures. A sequence from rolling up your sleeves for hands-on exercises anchored in drawing to unpacking art giants from Jackson Pollock to David Hockney and unique touring of an art museum, this session practices techniques for challenging assumptions and rethinking observational strategies that directly apply to leadership across fields arriving at solution-oriented results.
Objectives:
Learn to see through ‘Making to Think’ strategies that provide transformational leadership
Show how ‘Art, the Verb’ is central to leadership practices across enterprises and levels
Demonstrate that creativity is not the gift of an elite few but a practiced skillset
Demonstrate and practice observational dynamics through art-making
Focus on observing one’s self as key to developing both personal leadership and generating disruptive models
