Creative Problem Solving: Identify goal, wish or challenge Gather data Clarify the problem GENERATE IDEAS Select and strengthen solutions Plan for action
![Page 13: Chap 2 DT Creativity Innovation Brainstorming](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546b4061b4af9f000e8b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Steps in the Creative Problem Solving Process: Preparation Investigation Transformation Incubation Illumination Verification Implementation Evaluation
A dynamic balance between DIVERGENT THINKING (generating options) and CONVERGENT THINKING (selecting options)

“Cracking Creativity!” (Michalko) Seeing what no one else is seeing
Knowing how to see Making your thought visible
Thinking what no one else is thinking Thinking fluently, making novel combinations Connecting the unconnected Looking at the other side, looking in other worlds Finding what you’re not looking for Awakening the collaborative spirit
![Page 15: Chap 2 DT Creativity Innovation Brainstorming](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546b4061b4af9f000e8b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Failure: Just Part of the Creative Process!
For every 3,000 new product ideas: Four make it to the development stage. Two are actually launched. One becomes a success in the market.
On average, new products account for 40 percent of companies’ sales!!
Creativity is an important source for building a competitive advantage.

The Brainstorming Process: Rule out judgement (Suspend evaluation)
Seek Quantity (Quantity breeds Quality)
![Page 20: Chap 2 DT Creativity Innovation Brainstorming](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546b4061b4af9f000e8b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Brainstorming Process: Rule out judgement (Suspend evaluation)

Brainstorming Guidelines Keep the group small – “Two pizza rule.” Make the group as diverse as possible. Company rank is irrelevant. Have a well-defined problem, but don’t
reveal it ahead of time. Limit the session to 40 to 60 minutes. Take a field trip. Appoint a recorder.
![Page 23: Chap 2 DT Creativity Innovation Brainstorming](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061202/546b4061b4af9f000e8b4ab5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Brainstorming Guidelines Use a seating pattern that encourages
interaction. Throw logic out the window. Encourage all ideas from the team. Shoot for quantity of ideas over quality of
ideas. Forbid criticism. Encourage idea “hitch-hiking.” Dare to imagine the unreasonable.
