Innovation ≠ “We need more ideas”

• Spend most of the time thinking about ‘what’ are you solving, rather than ‘how’ • “If I had 20 days to solve a problem I would take 19 to define it.” - Einstein • Innovation is not only technology innovation - 10 types of innovation! • Research will reveal insights that are crucial to find an innovative solution • Innovation is influenced by social factors more than technology

Focus on the ‘what’ rather than ‘how’

“The trouble with every one of us is that we don't think enough. We don't get paid for working with our feet — we get paid for working with our heads..” Thomas J. Watson, Chairman and CEO of IBM 1914-1956

• Be curious, challenge and test ideas and conflicting opinions • Practice ‘frame-shifting’ • Tools and techniques such as brainstorming sessions, solving the opposite
problem, 5 whys and sketching and storyboarding • Change your environment and surround your self with creative people • Learning to collaborate, and give and receive feedback, may matter more than
your brilliance • Be persistent and have faith that you will find a solution

Rethink the way you think, break down your thinking process

• Barely anything is entirely original • Creativity and innovation is all about making connections between seamlessly
unconnected things • Use what already exists, tweak it and improve on it • Remember innovation is means to an end, not an end in itself • “All ideas are made from other ideas” • Learning from other innovations? Ask the right questions

Rethink ‘originality’

• We are wired to have negative bias towards creativity in uncertainty • Most people favor practically over creativity • Ideas are rarely rejected on their merits; they’re rejected because of how they
make people feel.
