Talk @ EduLab
Das Design wandelt sich stetig. In den vergangenen Jahre hat sich die Rolle von Designern in Wirtschaft, Politik und öffentlichem Sektor verändert. Während Designer klassischer Weise lediglich als “Kosmetiker” ein vorher aus technischer und wirtschaftlicher Perspektive entwickeltes Produkt aufhübschen durften, werden Designer heute immer öfter in multidisziplinäre Innovationsprozesse einbezogen, um Lösungen auf komplexe Fragestellungen zu gestalten. Wenn Designer heute immer öfter als Facilitatoren und Moderatoren von Kreativprozessen gefragt sind, welche Rolle sollten dann Lehrende einnehmen, um die Studenten […]
Summer break: I’m off!
I’ll be diving down into the depths of my doctorate until the end of August, and will only surface again when quite a lot of thought in the form of letters on the page has been completed. Before I go, I’d like to wish you a very wonderful summer. Mine will be a Triple B: Brighton, Boston, Berlin!

Boston, here we go! Research bucket list 2016: check!
If life has no vision, which one aspires to and hopes to realize, then there is no motivation to make an effort. We could absolutely not contain ourselves when we got the good news in the mailbox early this week from Boston: we have been invited to present our paper “Change by Design? Organizational learning barriers in large corporations in the German automotive industry” in late July at the 2016th Academic Design Management Conference. Together […]
book contribution about design competencies
It’s almost here: the new book Inquiry learning: how teaching can be renewed in university and universities of applied science by Mieg & Lehmann (Ed.) will be published by Campus Publishers and is currently on the way to the printer! Learning through research could revolutionize teaching at universities and colleges – and since the research project #Student Research teams at the HfG, which I directed until 2014, I always come across aspects of learning through research. But […]

Think Tank 30 of the Club of Rome
The concept of current terms such as agile, Design Thinking, Scrum and Human Centered Design enters the public sector and raise questions about the shaping of political structures. How can processes perceive, absorb and integrate the needs of humans? Can new ways of working soften existing, older, structures and strengthen cooperation? The 2016 Spring Conference, from the 15th to the 17th of April in Kassel, used the expertise of the Think Tank 30 to allow members […]
