The Strategic Design Management discipline at NID focuses on fostering creativity, innovation and foresight that empowers leaders and decision-makers to take meaningful decisions to address business, organisational and global challenges. Strategic design refers to the professional field in which designers use their principles, tools and methods to influence strategic decisions that have a long-term impact on organisations, communities and the eco-system at large.
The discipline focuses on redefining and redesigning management processes, strategies and leadership paradigms through strategic design interventions. The discipline seeks to innovatively apply creative, integrative, systemic, synergetic and human-centric approaches to business, organizational and management processes to make them more efficient and effective. The discipline offers courses that are designed to provide a hands-on learning experience to students to empower them to create contextual solutions to real-time challenges.
