Syllabus

WEEK 1
Estrategia
Todo inicia desde cómo se conciba el concepto de management y liderazgo. Debemos entender cuál es el objetivo de la alta gerencia para poder comprender todo lo que de ella se deriva posteriormente. ¿Puede identificar lo que una organización desea aportar a la comunidad? ¿Es capaz de construir un equipo de trabajo alineado a dichos objetivos? ¿En qué contextos y empresas usted por sus preferencias puede ser la mejor opción para liderar y en cuáles no? Comprender y saber emplear estas aristas serán los temas que aprenderás en este módulo.

WEEK 2
Gestión
La gestión de la empresa requiere tener una mirada global del mundo en el que vivimos para contar con herramientas precisas que nos sirvan para guiarnos entre tanta incertidumbre. Adaptarnos será la clave, pero adaptarnos sin perder nuestra identidad y equilibrio es el desafío que en este módulo deberás aprender a considerar en tu actividad diaria.

WEEK 3
Decisión
Tomar decisiones es el último eslabón de lo que implica el management. Aprender a idear, decidir y, finalmente, aprender del feedback recibido nos invita a repensarnos como líderes. ¿Cómo procesas tus opciones? ¿Cómo sabes cuál es mejor? ¿Estás dispuesto a aceptar que obraste incorrectamente? ¿Estás dispuesto a escuchar fielmente al mercado? Estos son los temas que abordará este módulo y aportarán a tu crecimiento profesional.

In the expression “creative thinking”, the keyword is not creativity; the keyword is thinking. With the help of great philosophers, you will rediscover the art of thinking. To help leaders to be rigorous even without figures, great philosophers have lots of ideas. Managers are invited to rediscover the art of thinking. They should understand the role of mental models, realize the importance of cognitive bias, agree on clear definitions and efficient criteria etc. Creativity demands the ability to unshackle ourselves from conventional ways of thinking, to "think outside the box".
