Sketchnotes from the Hargraves Institute’s Conference2013

Posted on March 20, 2013 by Matthew Magain in Soft Skills - No Comments
Sketchnote of the closing panel at the Hargraves Institute Conference2013

Last week I was fortunate enough to attend Conference2013, a day of presentations, case studies and inspiration related to innovation. The conference is an annual event organised by the Hargraves Institute, held at the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney.

The institute itself is an interesting concept:

…a unique and exclusive community of major enterprises to share knowledge, wisdom and experience in a non-competitive environment for the purpose of growth and development.

I love the idea of leadership teams sharing, collaborating with and learning from other industries. My favourite talk of the day was that from Deloitte’s Maureen Thurstone, who is not only championing design thinking within the halls of Deloitte, but is seeing huge success as a result, despite the friction that such a dramatic change in problem solving was causing.

Naturally, I took my sketchbook and captured some of the presentations.
