Understand how to improve the innovation process to keep your organization growing.
Creative thinking is a skill, not a gift. It's the starting point for the innovation process. But many companies struggle with innovation simply because they don't know how to generate high-quality, novel ideas for their business. This course will introduce a method of creativity called Systematic Inventive Thinking. It's based on patterns that has been used for thousands of years. These patterns are like the DNA of a product or service, and they can be reapplied to any product, process, or service to create growth and competitiveness. The material will emphasize real-world examples from global firms such as Johnson & Johnson, GE, and Procter & Gamble. It will outline additional resources to continue learning this method so you can sustain organization growth.
