This is the summarized version of the course syllabus, which is subject to change.
Innovation relies on creativity, and creativity is composed by different abilities that rely on plastic brain circuits, and therefore that we can improve upon. Students will perform neuro-scientific tests and will receive a detailed and confidential report on their abilities to get to know their own strengths and weaknesses.
We will discuss and use the latest scientific findings on the abilities that underlie creativity and innovation. This course will use highly interactive student-centered methods and the latest research to answer questions around how individuals can improve at solving problems creatively to foster their careers, and the performance of their organization.
