Learn inventive thinking and use different “thinkingtools” to create innovative ideas…!
The method used by Coach-Sans-Frontières to create novel solutions is based on different “thinking tools” designed to provoke and challenge the status quo and to break our natural mental “fixedness” that very often prevent realizing new opportunities.
During these workshops, Coach-Sans-Frontières does not direct: it’s about learning different “thinking tools”, guidance and support, without judgment, in a permanent and interactive co-creation process.
How to learn inventive thinking and use different “thinkingtools” to create innovative ideas?
***
I use an ‘Innovation Systematic and Structured Approach’ (ISSA) tool-kit to unlock stuck projects or ideas, by creating novel solutions (using different thinking tools), that did not exist before, enabling step-change in performance and new capability.
The thinking tools are ranging from strategy table, to reverse brainstorming, play roles, value mapping, reformulation of the problem, framing your opportunity, counter-intuitive problem solving and when/if appropriate, using the DNA of innovation.
This approach allows to break the natural “fixedness” that is so familiar to engineers. It produces innovative solutions for all types of projects / challenges, with a fast deployment. The ideas generated during these workshops are in general not only pragmatic but also radically different and at relatively low cost.
The ISSA approach helps to:
- Resolve stakeholder misalignments and conflicting value drivers.
- Develop strategy table, explore core value drivers of key stakeholders and widen the solution space.
- Create team building by co-creation of break-through solutions and conflict resolution.
- Use a Co-creation model/role play that helps understanding your partners/competitors through a step change in relationships and deals with partners.
- Sometimes, use and adapt the DNA of Innovation on any soft and technical challenges.
- Detect hidden benefits and create new ideas to improve or turn a project into something feasible at low cost.
