The Strategic Programs were developed to grow the capacities necessary for professionals of all disciplines to flourish in environments and organizations where uncertainty and complexity are the norm. The programs immerse participants in a design studio setting modeled on Rhode Island School of Design’s 142 years of teaching excellence. Participants become better critical thinkers and problem solvers, better collaborators, and better communicators. Our aim is to help expand their capacities and empower them to contribute to some of the most exciting work the world has to offer.
