Design thinking helps senior leaders mitigate risk while advancing the business
Financial transformation presents a wicked problem.
What is a wicked problem? A wicked problem is one that is ill-defined and/or extends beyond the core competency of 你r organization. A wicked problem can be risky to solve. It requires 你 to think in new ways, gain alignment, and get stakeholders from across organization to support the transformation.
By leveraging design thinking best practices, 你 can understand the pain of each stakeholder group. Your internal customers may not be able to clearly articulate what they want from the financial transformation, 但 skillful facilitators will be able to extract their pain.
With an understanding of their pain, 你, as a senior leader, will have justification and the inputs 你 need to be able to rank order initiatives to serve their needs and to distinguish their wants.
What does a Wicked problem look like?
Operators, creatives, IT leaders, marketers, 法律, and of course, finance, all come to the table viewing the problems and opportunities through the lens of their particular discipline. 的 diversity of thinking, while helpful in addressing solutions, can make it difficult for teams to gain consensus on the definition of the problem.
Design thinking rises above the language of each of 你r subject matter experts to provide a common language for problem definition and the resulting pathways forward. Bring all of 你r organization’s expertise to the table without having it interfere with the communication of ideas. You have disciplines and departments for a reason – get relevant insights from everyone and build a solution together.

Rally 你r organization around 你r wicked problem

Claim a multi-departmental victory.
We cannot solve our problems
with the same thinking
we used when we created them”
