Based on the talk by -Giovanni Corazza

1. THE OUT
OF THE
BOX
APPROACH
THINKING
Inspired by the
Story of
:Giovanni
Corazza

2. WHAT IS
THIS
????
Well , its just a
thinking way which is
out of the usual
League and is
certainly Creative .So
,basically an
approach different
from the Standard
one .

3. But , you need to Practice :

4. And there are some Questions regarding this Approach …………….
Inside we feels safe , outside we get exposed
and risks our reputation .So , we need to decide
IS IT A
LUXURY
IS IT A
NECESSITY

5. Its TRUE that we all possess the Same information , then what makes a
difference ???
Then why we have a situation where only few people manage to go Out Of The
BOX while the other keep on thinking with in the Limits ??
Well , that depends on what we generate to possess .

6. And thus
crossing the
limits at times
is indeed a
Necessity for
our Dignity
“A man is but
the product of
his thoughts
what he thinks,
he becomes. ”

7. Now , here we come with the concept of Human Mind
SAFE ZONE
The SAFE ZONE is the zone of our mind through which
we take Standard, Non-risky decisions while this RISK
ZONE allows us to take Risky, Out Of The Box decisions

8. Thus , this Out Of The Box is with in our minds . We just need
to stimulate this part of the mind during the situations when a
Creative solution to a problem is required or a new Creative
process is to be undergone !!
So ,
don’t
just play
safe .Play
your best
!!

9. And the Next Question is :

10. DIVERGENT INFORMATION
We have ideas of how things should be .We need to add something beyond
,apparently not relevant ……….Thus we need DIVERGENT INFORMATION

11. Another Question is :
Now , once we are out , we feel
excited about thinking something
different from the others in the initial
phase coming out ….
But , how many of us can achieve success even after taking a
step out of the League ????
Answer is : Very fewwww

12. But why
so…..
The Reasons may be :
Many of the Out standers don’t realize where to go and till what
extent
??

13. Even if they do realize that , they fear to walk alone

14. Now , even if we do overcome this fear ; we are tempted to go
back inside the box where we were feeling safe and leave that
strange and lonely place , where we feel left out .

15. But , wait !!! There is always a
solution and the one to this problem
is :
Thus , there is a problem of the lack of ability to resist fear , temptation and hold
our decisions for lone
“LONG THINKING “
LONG THINKING refers to some thought that takes us long .
For this , we need to be Open-minded , Creative , accept
Alternative thinking if we are felt by the world that our
thoughts are Irrelevant .

16. Thus , this way we can be Self-confident and thus feel
proud of our decisions howsoever different they may be

17. And yet another Question is :
What is the value of the New Idea ???
"Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who
looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside awakens." - Carl Jung
Well have the Eyes to notice the Difference in the In-box and Outside-
Box phases……

18. “If you are not willing to risk the unusual,
you will have to settle for the ordinary.”
“Motivation is what gets you started.
Habit is what keeps you going.”
JIM ROHN
So , it is our MOTIVATION which keeps us
going and makes us realize the importance
or the Value of our decisions

19. And , so we come now with the Final Question which is :
As in , When is it a good idea to think Out Of The Box ???
These days , everyone is
running a race around Time
and is so much pre-occupied
that he/she is left with no
time to think something
creative

20. So , is there any time to
think some thing irrelevant
??
YES , there are times
!!..But you have to
just find the Right
time and Volunteer !!

21. But what brings us those times ??
Lets see !!
When your Dignity demands
and you decide to think
something exceptional which
sets you apart from the Crowd
around you .
MIKE ROSS from Suits (an American TV series) : an Out of the Box Thinker

22. When the situation demands ,i.e, Progress
rate is going very slow by adopting usual
monotonous approaches at work

23. And so , you decide to do some
thing unusual , though
irrelevant it may be …
And so this is the time , you step out and be away from the trend

24. Now , what role does the Environment plays on our ability to
take these Our Of The Box decisions ???
Well , if the Environment around is Creative & Motivating , you
need to allow irrelevant info to come in
So , if we are Acknowledged and appreciated ,Our ability to take
Outstanding Decisions certainly enhances !!

25. Difference between CONVERGENT /DIVERGENT THINKING :
So , it is simple that Convergent thinking works on Facts while the Divergent
(Out Of The Box thinking ) works on generating ideas by gathering the Stimulus
from around .

26. This Visual shows the basic
difference between the
Apple’s approach and the
Approach of other
Companies
Apple follows Divergent Approach ,
where they create options ,while
usually companies follows
Convergent approach, where they
select options
So , we should follow a Divergent Approach where there is a
possibility to explore and create further possibilities
So , we should use a Divergent Modifier to a Convergent
Approach

27. This can be easily done by implementing the following Divergent
Strategy instead of the Convergent one

28. So , we should be :
“A Quick Jump out of
the Box is more
insightful than a lifetime
of the Standard living “
Hillary Rodham Clinton
