Michael is a co-founder of Torch Partnership, the Chief Strategist of Strategic Innovation Lab at the Ontario College of Art & Design, the architect of the Unfinished Business initiative and a member of the founders' circle of Overlap.
At Torch we think differently about the purpose and value of design. By treating business problems as problems of design we are able to develop a richer point of view on the problem itself. This creates a deeper understanding of the problem's dynamics, and leads to a diversity of insights to the problem, its causes and its effects. Our greatest ambition as designers is to improve the businesses we serve. We focus our attention on creating alignment between an organization's strategy and it's design for creating value: from structure to processes, communications and core capabilities.
