Decoding Transdisciplinary Thinking for Leaders

Written by Administrator | Jun 18, 2025 9:43:42 AM

Seminar Overview

SkillsFuture Singapore lists Transdisciplinary Thinking as a Critical Core Skill. They define it as the ability to "apply concepts from multiple disciplines and synthesise different areas of knowledge and insights to guide decisions, foster cooperation and drive continuous improvement."

As leaders, it is important that we hone this competency because, when coupled with collaboration, it allows us to deconstruct complex problems using several lenses, encourage diversity of thought, foster collective problem solving, and make more holistic decisions.

Join this 90-minute seminar to deepen your understanding of Transdisciplinary Thinking and learn practical strategies to apply it in your leadership role.

In this seminar, we will explore:

  • What is Transdisciplinary Thinking?
  • Types of problem statements suited for Transdisciplinary Thinking
  • Insights into applying Transdisciplinary Thinking at work
  • How leaders can hire and form teams, and the role of generalists in fostering a transdisciplinary culture
  • Leadership styles for leaders, transitioning from command to facilitative leadership
