Description
The montshire museum of science will train its staff in the principles of design thinking to strengthen its capacity to undertake critically important initiatives with innovation, creativity, and openness to change. With guidance and facilitation by experts in the field of social innovation, the museum will introduce every member of its staff to the steps and structure of design thinking methodology. A smaller cross-departmental team of eleven people will spend two days delving deeper into the process by applying IT to the specific challenge of serving visitors affected by autism spectrum disorder. Following the training, the museum will conduct a survey to assess performance measures, and an additional assessment at the end of the project year will evaluate how often and how effectively design thinking has been incorporated into the staff's standard practices for problem solving and program development.
