An innovation
is unique, adds value, and is worthy of exchange.
SLIDE 4
incremental or breakthrough innovation?
SLIDE 5
Fixedness
A state of mind in which an element or situation is perceived in one specific way, to the exclusion of any alternative.
SLIDE 6
Structural fixedness
The tendency to view elements as a whole, making it difficult to imagine how an element could be reorganized.
SLIDE 7
Functional fixedness
The tendency to ascribe specific functions to respective elements
SLIDE 8
How do we break fixedness?
SLIDE 9
Frameworks
Structures that guide the innovation process, with lots of methods and tools to help you
SLIDE 10
DISCOVERY DESIGN DEVELOPMENT DELIGHT
SLIDE 11
DESIRABILITY
does anyone want it?
FEASIBILITY
can we do it?
VIABILITY
is it financially viable?
SLIDE 12
Other frameworks
desirability, viability, feasibility learn, make, think, check hear, create, deliver plan, analyze, design, test/refine looking, understanding, making empathize, define, ideate, prototype, test and many, many, many more

When do you need new ideas?
SLIDE 15
Ideation
SLIDE 16
brain- storming
SLIDE 17
Systematic Inventive Thinking S.I.T.

SLIDE 19
A closed world
SLIDE 20
The closed world
Identify 5-10 key components
- f any system as it exists today
SLIDE 21
Apply one of 5 tools
subtraction, multiplication, division, task unification, attribute dependency
SLIDE 22
Applying subtraction
Take away a key component and describe that new world
SLIDE 23
Identify benefits
Why is this imaginary thing better than what you’ve got?
SLIDE 24
Ideate
Explore ways to recreate the benefit while (maybe) adding back the thing you removed
SLIDE 25
Ideate
Go for volume: name each idea, describe it concisely, list benefits and problems, REPEAT
SLIDE 26
Remember
Ideas are just one small step. Innovation means execution, too — getting the thing done.
