Why You Should Attend

Design Thinking

When dealing with large complex systems such as the medical, railroad, shipping, and government business, it’s imperative to be able to use critical thinking to parse out hard evidence, act on learned intuition, and take innovative and creative steps to solve a problem. Delegates should attend as it will help them look at their own problems at a new angle, and teach them how they can develop strategies and tactics to handle large, complex problems within their business.
