Dr. Anne Stenros on creative leadership, strategic design, the importance of heroes and sheroes, and what it takes to be a future-proof leader in a rapidly changing, complex and chaotic world

Show Notes: https://devsingh.net/dr-anne-stenros-...

Dr. Anne Stenros is a thought leader and an architect with a doctorate in technology. She has over 25 years of experience in Creative Leadership and Strategic Design. Between 2005 to 2015, she acted as the first Design Director at KONE Corporation, a world leading elevator and escalator company. In 2016 to 2018, she was appointed as the first ever Chief Design Officer CDO of a city, namely the city of Helsinki.

She has also had a professorship in Creative Leadership at the Aalto University. She has participated as an expert role in many different EU forums, and she was the member of the World Design Capital WDC 2022 selection committee by World Design Organization WDO.

Currently she is speaking, lecturing, writing, mentoring, and catalyzing change. She's curious about the future of cities, architecture, and urbanism. She believes in collaboration, co-creation, and creative collective.

Some of the questions I ask Anne in this conversation:
• Why do you think that fitting designers into a traditional and strict organizational model will kill their creative capacity?
• What is design leadership? How is it different to not design leadership or any other leadership? Is there even a distinction or is every leadership actually design leadership?
• What is the difference between design leadership and Creative Leadership?
• Should all leaders be creative? And should leadership by default, be creative or is Creative Leadership something different?
• Do you think it helped that you were a creative professional before and while there are some fundamental lessons that you got as a designer or as a creative professional that helped you be a better leader?
• What can [emerging and aspiring leaders] learn from creative disciplines, or design or service design or strategic design that would help them become a better leader, even if they're not working in a creative field themselves?
