In his new book, The Game-Changer: How You Can Drive
Revenue and Profit Growth with Innovation, P&G CEO A.G.
Lafley explains the difference between the two methods:
"Business schools tend to focus on inductive thinking (based on
directly observable facts) and deductive thinking (logic and
analysis, typically based on past evidence)," he writes. "Design
schools emphasize abductive thinking—imagining what could
be possible. This new thinking approach helps us challenge
assumed constraints and add to ideas, versus discouraging
them."
