In order to solve business problems as well as personal/private ones, creativity is one of the most critical points. Therefore, students will learn in this lecture how creative processes work, which techniques like brainstorming, etc. can be used and how problems can be analyzed in a systematic way by means of planning and structuring. 

Special emphasis will be put on applying problem definition and problem analysis like “Socratic Questions” “Duncker Diagram” and “Kepner-Tregoe-Analysis” (amongst others). We will practice “critical thinking” and “trial & error” approaches throughout the lecture.

Instructor: Mr. Frank Rudolph
