KaosPilot and d·HEALTH Barcelona give free masterclass on creative leadership
<p>The session will be held on 8 September at the University of Barcelona Faculty of Medicine</p>
At six thirty on 8 September at the University of Barcelona Faculty of Medicine (Hospital Clinic), David Storkholm and Paul Natorp of Danish school KaosPilot will give a free masterclass on creative leadership for anyone interested in learning techniques and models of creativity and leadership for business.
KaosPilot is a world-renowned Danish school called one of the best design schools in the world by Business Week in 2008. This event, organized by the d·HEALTH Barcelona master in life sciences innovation and entrepreneurship (an initiative of Biocat), will give participants a taste of the Creative Leadership program led by David Storkholm, which is part of the training in the d·HEALTH Barcelona master.
David Storkholm, professional coach and leadership trainer, and Paul Natorp, entrepreneur with experience in innovation management, will analyze the role creative leadership plays in generating important, relevant results through passion and teamwork. This masterclass will feature speakers discussing the differences between conventional leaders and creative leaders in improving the innovation process.
The session is also an opportunity for those interested in doing the d·HEALTH Barcelona master, as KaosPilot is involved in two modules in the program. Of the two classes of fellows that have already graduated from this program, 100% still work in the health sector and two thirds are at their own start-up.
The masterclass will be held in the Aula Magna at the Faculty of Medicine (UB) and participants must sign up beforehand (free entrance), as spots are limited to the capacity of the room. The session will last approximately one hour.
