Idea generation
The document provides guidance on stimulating idea generation. It discusses blocks to creativity like fear of failure and outlines strategies to unblock creativity such as awareness, analysis, and goal setting. It then discusses techniques for creative generation like breaking assumptions and brainstorming. The document also covers evaluating ideas based on feasibility and recognizing current ideas through boundaries. Overall, the document offers a framework to develop divergent thinking abilities and foster an environment that stimulates creativity.
Creativity
Creativity involves conceiving something original or unusual, whether an idea, product, or process. Innovation is the implementation of something new. Creativity does not necessarily lead to innovation, as a creative idea may not be implemented. Factors that influence individual creativity include expertise in a field, creative thinking skills, and intrinsic rather than extrinsic motivation. Barriers to creativity can exist at the mindset, personal, and organizational levels and include rigid thinking, fear of failure, and an emphasis on control. Developing one's creativity involves techniques such as brainstorming, becoming an expert, idea mapping, and challenging oneself to try new approaches.
Process innovation and leadership ppt
The document discusses innovation and creativity. It states that innovation is key for entrepreneurs and involves converting opportunities into marketable ideas through a creative and systematic process. Creativity generates new ideas that improve efficiency and involves both process and people. The creative process involves phases like knowledge accumulation, incubation, idea generation, and evaluation. Developing creativity requires recognizing relationships, having a functional perspective, using both sides of the brain, and eliminating limiting mindsets. Innovation often stems from addressing incongruities or needs and following principles like keeping ideas simple, customer-focused, and continually testing and revising.
How to kill creativity in your organization
Most people are born creative. As children, we revel in imaginary play, ask outlandish questions, draw blobs and call them dinosaurs. But over time, because of socialization and formal education, a lot of us start to stifle those impulses. We learn to be warier of judgment, more cautious, more analytical. The world seems to divide into “creatives” and “noncreatives,” and too many people consciously or unconsciously resign themselves to the latter category.
And yet we know that creativity is essential to success in any discipline or industry. According to a recent IBM survey of chief executives around the world, it’s the most sought-after trait in leaders today. No one can deny that creative thinking has enabled the rise and continued success of countless companies, from start-ups like Facebook and Google to stalwarts like Procter & Gamble and General Electric.
In this presentation you will discover why you lost your creative confidence—the natural ability to come up with new ideas and the courage to try them out, and how to restore it back.

Creativity
Creativity involves generating new ideas and solutions. It is a universal ability that can be both innate and acquired. Creative people are typically adventurous thinkers who are ready to take challenges and think outside the box. There are various techniques to enhance creativity such as brainstorming, lateral thinking, analogies, and checklists that involve divergent thinking, combining ideas, and looking at problems from different perspectives. Factors like fluency, flexibility, originality, and sensitivity to problems influence creativity. The creative process often involves preparation, incubation, illumination, and verification stages.
Creativity In Management
The document discusses creativity in management and organizations. It covers definitions of creativity, theories of creativity such as insight theories and self-actualization theories. It also discusses creativity in teams and how Tuckman's model of team development was modified to explain creative teams. The document also examines the creative organization and lists some examples like Toyota, Haier, and WordPress. It concludes by mentioning creative clusters and intrinsic motivation in creative cultures.
What is creative thinking, why do we need it and how do we learn it
Creative thinking is a process that allows one to look at problems in new ways and generate unique ideas. It involves becoming flexible and thinking illogically. We need creative thinkers to solve problems and develop better solutions. Everyone is capable of learning creative thinking through repeatable processes and techniques. For example, one can capture ideas from dreams, which the subconscious continues to generate while sleeping. It is important to separate problem-solving into understanding the situation and generating alternative solutions rather than settling on the first idea. NASA initially spent over $100 per pencil but a privately-developed ballpoint pen functioned in space for just $6 per unit, showing the value of creative thinking.
Creativity in management
1. Creativity involves the reorganization of experience into new configurations and is a function of knowledge, imagination, and evaluation. It can take the form of art, discovery, or humor.
2. Each hemisphere of the brain processes different types of information - the left brain is logical and analytical while the right brain is intuitive and looks at the whole picture.
3. Creativity generates new ideas while innovation is implementing those ideas. Innovation gives companies competitive advantages through new approaches and flexibility.
Group creativity
This document discusses creativity and how groups can enhance creativity. It defines creativity as generating new ideas and solutions. Groups can foster creativity by embracing diversity of perspectives, establishing a supportive environment for sharing ideas, rewarding innovative ideas, and practicing collaboration and active listening. Both innovation and stability are important, as too much of either can limit creativity. Brainstorming techniques like questioning, wild idea generation, and building on others' ideas can stimulate group creativity.
Creative thinking
Giovanni Corazza suggests ways to think more creatively like Elon Musk by going "out of the box". This involves taking risks, thinking differently than others by expanding one's mind beyond known information, combining ideas from different disciplines, and noticing opportunities through serendipity. Creative thinking also values long thinking to extract principles from ideas and evaluate new ideas for their potential value.
Design Thinking for Creative Confidence
In February I spent one week with 25 students from different disciplines at European institute of Design in Rome, (IED Rome University). Every year the university holds the event called IED Factory where a cross-pollination of skills and backgrounds mingle to boost creativity, diversity and collaboration. Twelve workshops take place and the students are bound to deliver a final project after an intense week of activities. I designed the workshop to introduce the Design Thinking approach and to instill creative confidence. Visual Communication, Fashion Designers, Fashion Stylist, Photography, Animation, Jewellery Design are the different areas where the participants came from.
The following are my findings.
What’s the problem? Create trust and serendipity.
At the outset my approach was to build up the atmosphere of one spine of 25 designers. In the first two sessions I tried to instill the design thinking skill set: observations, empathy, trust and collaboration. Then I set up 5 teams and showed them three challenges in Sustainability, Transport and Health & Food.
A culture of innovation.
As soon as the participants begun to perceive the sense of purpose, the edge of ‘Familiar vs Unfamiliar’ using storytelling, the Design Thinking methodology is a toolkit that implies a culture of risk, trust and failure. It creates scenarios of use, provokes and inspires alternatives.
The projects…? No, it’s the path, it's the discovery.
People are creative. Yes, they are indeed. In few days they went through ‘discover, ideation and prototype’ phases delivering an app and website for ‘Health & Food’, two ‘Educational rubbish bin’ for Sustainability, a thematic bus. Well, they did not find any investors. They adopted the mindset to show themselves things to explore, test and learn. The video below shows an example.
From the idea of design object to think instead designing behaviours.
First I needed to understand why I was going to do the workshop and what was the gap I could support as facilitator. The plan was to create contents, activities and my approach based on a design for knowledge, skills and motivation. So I focused on those scenarios rather than a design for habits, communication and environment.
Designers design their way through the problem
Once the participants start learning by doing, they also trust the process and forge their own way to go through. Eventually the thorny issues such as get people talking in the streets, reframe questions and create a storyboard helped them to see new opportunities. Then they transformed data into actionable ideas. However, as facilitator you are a designer as well. Therefore you also design your way through the problem with them.
Lesson Learnt
By focusing on creating a challenging context you might be able to offset the pressure to provide all the interactions; let the learners interact with each other. In terms of content, it is less than you think it is.
Critical, creative & innovative thinking
The document discusses the Six Thinking Hats method for structured thinking and debate preparation. The method involves thinking about an issue from six perspectives represented by colored hats: red for feelings, white for facts, black for cautions, yellow for benefits, green for creative solutions, and blue for process. When preparing for a debate, the suggested sequence is to start with the red hat to identify one's emotional response, then the white hat to research needed facts, followed by the yellow, black, and green hats to generate arguments for and against the issue before countering objections. The Six Thinking Hats provides a framework to direct thinking attention systematically to different aspects of critical thinking.
Creativity & innovation
This document discusses creativity and innovation. It argues that creativity involves combining existing ideas to create something new. True innovation requires challenging existing ways of thinking and taking customers' perspectives. Innovation is difficult because companies tend to benchmark each other, leading to similar approaches. The document advocates rethinking how companies are run to foster a culture where new ideas are welcomed, risks are embraced, and failure is accepted as part of the learning process. Speed and action are important for innovation to succeed.

Lecture4
Creativity involves developing new ideas and solutions, while innovation applies those creative solutions to problems and opportunities to improve people's lives. Entrepreneurs succeed by thinking and doing new things or existing things in new ways. The creative process involves preparation, investigation, transformation of information, incubation of ideas, illumination of a solution, and verification and implementation of innovative solutions.
Creative And Innovative Thinking Skills
This document discusses tools and techniques for developing creative and innovative thinking skills. It covers defining problems, types of innovation, conceptual blocks to creativity, the three components of creativity, characteristics of creative groups, and tools for defining problems and creating new ideas such as attribute listing and brainstorming. The goal is to provide a framework for developing skills that can be applied to daily problem solving.
opportunity and idea generation
This document discusses the importance of creativity, innovation, and idea generation for business. It defines key terms like business opportunity, idea generation, and creativity. It also describes approaches to generating ideas like brainstorming and improving existing products. Brainstorming techniques are explained, and entrepreneurship is discussed as being at the core of innovation. The story of Lijjat Papad, a successful women's cooperative in India, is provided as an example of how a small idea can become a large business. Finally, some organizations dedicated to idea generation are listed.
Idea Generation Techniques
Ideas have been the driving force of humanity. From a simple circular wheel carved from rock back in the stone ages to the first airplanes and telephones, innovative ideas have sparked off revolutionary changes in society. Now in this competitive world, ideas have become more important to us than actions. Companies have begun asking designers to generate solutions that meet the needs and desires of the consumer.
As such, there was a need to streamline and increase the efficiency of producing and sharing ideas within teams. This gave birth to several idea generation techniques, which allowed everyone to play a part in the creative process, a role allotted strictly to designers and engineers for the last few years.
Idea generation techniques meant anyone could participate in creating new ideas. It allowed people to share and build up on existing solutions, to foresee future problems, and essentially, to think big in terms of design. It brought different specializations together to create a more diverse think-tank that can tackle problems from several perspectives.
This report is divided into three parts.
First, we shall look into several idea generation techniques, both popular ones and the uncommon ones, question their uses and value by providing examples of products developed using the specific techniques.
Second, we discuss whether idea generation methods and techniques are important in coming up with new ideas? Are they the driving factor in generating ideas?
Lastly, we conclude with our personal view on idea generation techniques, along with stating which methods, if any, would we prefer to use.
Towards the end we aim to achieve a better understand of the creative thinking process as a whole and how to effectively solve all issues, design or otherwise.
Idea generation
George Bernard Shaw said "Other people see things and say 'Why?' But I dream things that never were and say 'Why not?'" This quote encourages imagining possibilities beyond what currently exists and questioning assumptions rather than accepting limitations. It promotes a creative mindset of exploring "what if" instead of dismissing ideas.

This quote encourages imagining possibilities beyond what currently exists and questioning assumptions rather than accepting limitations. It promotes a creative mindset of exploring "what if" instead of dismissing ideas.
Idea generation & development for startups
The document provides guidance on developing startup ideas and bringing them to market. It discusses two approaches to idea generation: solving problems you personally have, and finding better solutions to existing problems. It then outlines a 9-step process for taking an idea from initial development to scaling a business, including creating an elevator pitch, developing mockups, testing market need, pricing, market size, customer acquisition strategy, minimum viable product, proving product-market fit, and scaling.

Steve Portigal - "Well, we did all this research ... now what?"
User research often catalogs findings and implications, but stops short of generating specific design improvements. Designers increasingly involved with contextual research may find themselves holding onto a trove of raw data but with little awareness of how to turn it into design. Steve Portigal introduces a framework for synthesizing raw data into a fresh, contextual understanding of a customer's unmet needs.

Design Approaches For Immersive Experiences AR/VR/MR
Presented at inaugural International Investment Forum in Virtual, Augmented and Mixed Reality (#IIFVAR 2017) at Technopark Zurich, organized by the Swiss Society of Virtual and Augmented Reality (SSVAR). Here I presented an overview of how to design products for virtual, augmented, and mixed reality experiences. With a logical framework of user experience, theater/film, and game design, we can use the best tools of those disciplines to approach immersive design with an understanding of story structure, user state, and interaction mechanics.
More discussion of the elements of the talk are available here:

ISMAR 2014 AR Workshop: Designing Location Based Experiences
My presentation from the 2014 ISMAR workshop series. Location-based experience design workshop is focused on exploring and teaching about the intersection between story, location, and technology for augmented and mixed reality products and installation development.
Here I focused on combining and drawing links between UX tools such as user journey maps, as a design tool for location experiences from the user perspective. This influences game mechanics, world building, etc. to form the location experience.
As use cases I presented two projects I have been involved with, Ghosts of Venice and Lost In Reality.

The document summarizes a presentation on digital storytelling and transmedia tools. It discusses scrollkit for digital storytelling, brickflow for curating social media, and raptmedia for creating interactive videos. Transmedia projects are described as having a story, methods of consumption, and containers to realize the experience. Prototyping tools like balsamiq and keynote are presented to design user experiences. The document promotes thinking about how users interact with and engage in the story world through consumption.
Transmedia Zurich: Narrative and Story Structure in Games and Media
We often talk of stories and designing great experiences, but how does the medium we choose (book, movie, spoken-word, mobile game, etc.) influence the structure of the story.
Why is it that you can predict the key points of a sitcom without knowing all the details of the plotline? Story structure in myths we've been told since before we could speak influence how we see the world and how we tell our own stories.
The Transmedia Zurich meetup on June 27th, 2013 was all about how story structure can be identified and used in the design process, either as a basis for transmedia productions, or in smaller projects.
Mark (Lost In Reality / idezo) gave an overview of basic story strucutre, and how it is applied to different media. Included are references to the work by Joseph Campbell (The Hero with a Thousand Faces) and how choosing a narrative can be used to target the emotional design of a product (film, game, book, etc.).

UX/UI Optimization
Why are user interfaces still designed one by one? That's like redesigning the wheel or a chair each time we want to make a new one.
I envision using mechanical optimization techniques like I would use to design a bridge applied to user interface and interaction design. We need to collect data on user interaction patterns and then use this data set as the boundary conditions of an optimization design space.
If we have devices who know who we are apps can be scaled for button layout and responsiveness. Then our apps will scale their design if we are young or old. Specific user needs can be addressed on a user by user basis.

The document advocates creating one's own artistic context and conversation to imbue their work with value and longevity.
Gonzo Art
Hunter S. Thompson experimented with Gonzo Journalism in his book Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. He intended to record everything as it happened in a notebook and submit it for publication without any editing. Thompson viewed the journalist's eye and mind as functioning like a camera, selectively writing descriptions but considering the written words final, similar to a photographer's unaltered negatives. However, the experiment in Gonzo Journalism without editing proved to be a failure for Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
