Sally Dominguez is a 10XInnovation Activator and Strategist. As a multi-award-winning Inventor, Adventurer, Journalist and Educator, Sally has unique experience practicing, observing, teaching and advocating for innovation. Sally has updated Design Thinking with her ADVENTUROUS THINKING methodology, designed to promote the agile mindset needed for consistently innovative practices. No longer is design thinking reactive. Using the Five Lens tools to alternately converge and proliferate thinking, ADVENTUROUS THINKING enables users to think outside their default "expert" neural pathways, and re-ignite the curious mindset that is the key to consistent innovation. Above all, ADVENTUROUS THINKING results in growth: personal, professional and company-wide.
As Innovation Strategy & Design Program Director as Singularity University Sally has designed and delivered programs to activate the Adventurous10X Mindset needed to flourish in the unrelenting change of the Fourth Revolution. Sally is also on Faculty at Singularity, specializing in Resilience, Leadership, Smart Cities, Future Forecasting and the Future of Transport. Sally also co-hosts TheNextBillionCars podcast on our transportation future.
ADVENTUROUS THINKING has been used internationally by the Shenzhen government, Genentech, Sandisk, Clif Bar and other corporates, runs every semester as a workshop at Stanford and was presented as part of the SXSW Frugal Innovation panel. Sally has taught ADVENTUROUS THINKING as a means to integrate innovation into the Australian school curriculum for the Association of Independent Schools and the Catholic Schools Office. At Singularity University Sally has implemented her Adventurous10XMindset strategy to governments and organisations in Dubai, Singapore, Germany and throughout the USA.
In March 2017 Sally developed her enhanced STEM learning initiative SYSTEMIC - the Synergy of STEM with Innovation & Creative Communication. SYSTEMIC is a free access inverted biomimicry model now in use at NSW and NorCal schools.
Sally's passion is activating the creative and innovative potential of others.

Architect of ADVENTUROUS THINKING, updated Design Thinking for Unprecedented Growth
An Australian inventor and designer now living in the USA, Sally teaches creative thinking and design, and is passionate about design and maker thinking in education and business.
Innovation is difficult to 'teach'. I was very skeptical at the beginning of the course as how useful it would be for me (being from a design background myself). Sally hit the ground running from episode 1 and accelerated as we went along.
