GETTING
OUT OF THE BOX
H
Have you ever
EXPERIENCED?
An easy task but difficult for you to perform
Have your boss ever asked you for a CREATIVE solution
of a problem
And you are like…WHAT!!! CREATIVE ?
???
CREATIVE THINKING requires one thing PRACTICE
To understand out of the box thinking, ask a few questions to
YOURSELF
WHYshould we go out of the box ?
BUT…
Its so safe inside the
If everyone posses the same information,
What makes the difference?
What can we generate with that common information?
WHICHbox are we talking about ?
We can not think out of our mind
It is the boundary within our minds
Between what we know
What haven’t still thought about…
And
WHEN to think out of the box or give new ideas ?
Will you give creative ideas in such a working environment?
HOW to get out of the box ?
Do we need an apple to fall on our head ?
Or Are there some
specific techniques ?
Some steps to think out of the box
Think about something beyond convergent (which everybody has) information
SOMETHING
• Absurd• Wrong• Spicy• Which
takes us far
• Which is divergent• Which apparently
is not relevant
Its like we reach at an unknown place
Its like we are suspended in air
Feeling to go back to the safe place again ?
“Lets go inside the box again”
RESIST this feeling
Use combination of ideas
Look forward for CORRECT
ALTERNATIVE answers.
Lucky to get a new idea, access its practicality
Oops!I am not an inventor !
Let’s do what others do.
Never kill your ideas.
How can we get out of the box in organizing TEDx events ?
Requirements for TEDx events:good speakersexcellent themegrand settings
Let’s apply a DIVERGENT factor to any of the above
elements.
Think of a STADIUM instead of a theatre for organizing TEDx events.
BUT Is it PRACTICAL?
What about a stadium already filled ?
Let’s have it during the half time of football matches.
A Quick jump out of the box is more insightful than
a lifetime standard thinking.
Let’s
RECAP
Ask Questions to get out of the box
HOW ?WHICH ?HOW ?WHEN ?
Don’t KILL your ideas.
Search forALTERNATIVES.
Think BIG.
Let’s Come OUT.
