The topic for the seminar was about the creativity imperative and the technology professional of the future by Dr David E. Goldberg. His speech is good and inspire us on how to be a creative person and become a TPOF (technology professional of the future).
What he mentioned: to be a TPOF; this are the various points to be noted:
- Customer pull, not tech push.
- Cannot change in current departments alone.
- Cannot do it with tech knowledge alone.
- Cannot do it without human-centered design understanding.
- Cannot do it by ignoring widespread tech ignorance.
- Cannot ignore challenge of tabula rasa.
- Cannot stick with PPG, proposals and grants.
He also recommended a book "A whole new mind" by Daniel H. Pink which demonstrate 6 skills for WNM.
