Download or read book Change Your Dam Thinking written by Gray McQuarrie and published by Bound Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each chapter in this book consists of stories. There is a moral to all of these stories: you will grow as a flow thinker and you will be damned as a dam thinker. The choice is yours. What is DAM thinking? The book presents five dams, for example the ego dam stops the flow of productivity. How? If there is a serious problem and you fail to ask for help, what is stopping you? Ego. What does that block? Production. Why is this important? Companies with DAM thinking suffer from stagnation, pollution, and pressure. Nothing much matters in a DAM thinking company, because not much gets done. Companies that FLOW and GROW deliver their product and service with velocity and quality. But more than that a FLOW thinking company develops market disruptive methods and technologies that emerge from the collective intelligence of the work force. Flow companies are all about Velocity, Quality, and Emergence. Flow companies are all about people. Work is social. People's behaviors lead business results. People's behavior is governed by their thinking. This book will show you how to find and develop something called complex solutions and show you how you can develop your own unique complex plan; your own unique business improvement system. Companies that understand these three statements that 1) work is social, 2) our behaviors lead results, and 3) behaviors are governed by our thinking don't just perform well, they completely dominate the markets they serve. This book not only provides understanding, but detail on how you can move forward and design your own company that flows and grows.

Download or read book Design Thinking in Student Affairs written by Julia Allworth and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design thinking is an innovative problem-solving framework. This introduction is the first book to apply its methodology to student affairs and, in doing so, points the way to its potentially wider value to higher education as a whole.With its focus on empathy, which is the need to thoroughly understand users’ experiences, design thinking is user-centered, similar to how student affairs is student-centered. Because the focus of design thinking is to design with users, not for users, it aligns well with student affairs practice. In addition, its focus on empathy makes design thinking a more equitable approach to problem-solving than other methods because all users’ experiences—not just the experiences of majority or “average” student—need to be understood. Centering empathy in problem-solving processes can be a tool to disrupt higher education systems and practices.Design thinking is a framework to foster innovation, and, by its nature, innovation is about responding to change factors with creativity. In an organization, design thinking is inherently connected to organizational change and culture because the process is really about changing people to help them rally around a disruptive idea. Implementing design thinking on a campus may in itself be disruptive and require a change management process. The beauty of using design thinking is that it can also act as a framework to support organizational culture change.Design thinking approaches, with their focus on stakeholder needs (as opposed to systemic norms), collaborative solutions building, and structured empathy activities can offer a concrete tool to disrupt harmful systems of power and oppression. Design thinking as a process is not a magic solution to equity problems, though it can be a powerful tool to approach the development of solutions that can address inequity. Design thinking is data-driven and considers both qualitative and quantitative data as necessary to gain most complete picture of an issue and its possible solutions, whether a product, program, or service.Design thinking has numerous benefits to afford students affairs. Chapter 1 outlines a case for design thinking in student affairs. Chapter 2 discusses a brief history of design thinking, noting its germination and evolution to current practice. Chapter 3 provides a detailed description of each step of the design thinking model with pertinent examples to make the steps clearer. Chapter 4 explains the intersection of equity and design thinking while chapter 5 explores the use of design thinking for organizational change. Chapter 6 presents a new model for design thinking assessment. Chapter 7 addresses the challenges and limitations of the process. Chapter 8 concludes the book by discussing the alignment of design thinking and student affairs and outlining next steps.Design thinking is an innovative process that can change the way higher education and student affairs operates, realizing the potential it offers.

Download or read book Hope Circuits written by Jessica Riddell and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2024-03-12 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we model abundance and generosity – in teaching, in learning, in leading organizations, particularly non-profits – when dealing with fiscal austerity and other forms of scarcity thinking? Hope Circuits explores this question, presenting sophisticated ideas that support democratizing higher education for everybody. Written in a conversational style that draws upon Jessica Riddell’s experience in governance, senior administration, and scholarship, the book is a how-to guide and thought leadership manifesto for developing the conceptual tools to seek solutions to higher education’s most pressing issues. Hope Circuits aims to rewire mindsets, perspectives, and behaviours to in turn rewire and renew the systems within which university stakeholders learn, live, and work. It tackles this challenging feat by suggesting ten tools to build hope circuits, a concept borrowed from neuroscience. Riddell acknowledges that changing systems and deep cultures is not for the faint of heart; indeed, the more than 250 interviews conducted with thought partners for Hope Circuits expose how individuals who navigate complex systems regularly experience discomfort and even despair. In response, she shows us how to anchor a practice of hope in higher education with focus and intention, inviting others to adopt and adapt her approach.
