Design thinking, according to Dr. Vea, transforms how leaders approach complex challenges. He explains how creativity, iteration, and problem-solving mindsets empower universities to address seemingly intractable issues and reimagine leadership beyond administration.
Not everybody can appreciate design. It is different from analysis. Analysis is much simpler. And even within the process of design, analysis is part of the loop of what's part of the design loop. So. And, well, I've designed some physical systems and it is really exciting to start with and I think there's nothing there, no product, no process, no system, know in some cases not, but in others you are absolutely redesigning, but there's nothing there.
And you come out with, with, something if you say creative, process, and, that is, pretty powerful for solving problems, especially those that are, you know, intractable or those that have proven to be difficult to solve. Then, the application of a design methodology with iterations and all can possibly help unlock the solution to the problem.
So I think the same thinking came to be invoked a number of years ago. Everybody was saying the same, thinking the same thinking, but I don't know how many of them really appreciate that. What you're thinking would be. So for the education leaders, you know, would it be steeped in the same thinking, then that will lead to the solution of problems, most notably not just a solution of problems, but, challenges the addressing of, challenges that, you know, big challenges of university leaders expected address.
So, yeah, it's, the operative word is this say, I say they'll meet today, but that is, it's it's it's, not everybody would, would really, I guess, but be build for something like that because it can be learned and, it has to be learned by university leaders.
