MODERN MACGYVER - PROBLEM SOLVING FOR DISASTERS
  • In any crisis unforeseen circumstances arise. You can’t plan for everything.
  • Novel problems often call for novel solutions…quickly!
  • Novel solutions are generated via innovative problem-solving

We can be better prepared for unknown problems by learning about innovation and practicing principles of innovation. With these things in mind, the Modern MacGyver course explores the characteristics of innovation, innovators, and innovative thinking. Methods for generating innovation and for brainstorming effectively are presented. The latter part of the session presents several scenarios through which participants can apply the ideas and techniques that were discussed.
