1) Embrace guerilla usability testing. The truth is that with guerilla usability testing, it can be done quickly and with minimal costs. Ultimately, while big changes need to come from intuition, optimization of an interface or flow should include a structured experimentation framework.”. Jonathan Moore, Head of Product, Hailo.
Invest in Frameworks, But First, Establish a Culture Where Innovation Thrives. More structure is needed as fundamentals take hold, and that means an innovation process framework. More structure is needed as fundamentals take hold, and that means an innovation process framework. Innovation Fundamentals for Leaders.
You could use quick-and-dirty guerilla research methods (e.g., There are many methods to help with prioritization, such as the PIE framework or ICE score, which we’ve written about previously. The “aware but yet to buy” as well as recently churned segments can offer up a ton of insights. It’s time to start prioritizing the list.
I’ve done many blogs on specific tools, techniques and innovation frameworks. One had to do with small business innovation — Guerilla Innovation , and another had to do with a Gonzeaux Innovation Roadtrip — with views of innovation through middle America. Guerilla Innovation is essentially a free online blogged book.
In addition to learning structured creative problem solving (Osborn-Parnes-Basadur framework) we did some short bits of ideation around new business concepts. I recently gave a creative problem solving workshop to a group of scientists who all worked for the same outfit. It was a lively session. So ask already.
Do Purpose First, Select a Framework, Then Do Projects. In the innovation space there is endless discussion about frameworks. Can I blend frameworks? Using a structured innovation framework is a project success factor. Purpose informs every step of the innovation process, whichever framework you use. Which is best?
You can argue over Lori’s success, but you can’t argue about the amount of press she got due to hard work and creative guerilla marketing. Understand your why then get to work figuring out the way… on figuring out the way, I’ve found 7 actions that have helped me. Just about everything has potential.
Poor knowledge of innovation process, approaches and frameworks. Yes, you can train people in creative thinking, Front-End-of-Innovation (FEI) frameworks, problem solving, and meeting facilitation. Knowledge of frameworks like Lean, Agile, CPS and Design Thinking are essential. Your innovation efforts will fail without training.
It also provides a complete framework for innovation project management, as well as a compare and contrast of the most commonly used frameworks (useful for those in framework selection mode.) Gregg instructs ways to blend frameworks and use the best tools within frameworks such as Lean, Agile, CPS, or Design Thinking.
Design Thinking alone will not guarantee success (or any other framework, Agile, Lean, etc.). Framework training is useful, but you can get into the weeds and get killed if you don’t have other fundamentals sorted out. Lack of Managment support will effectively kill any innovation program no matter how well conceived.
The content is about how the best organizations do it; mindset, frameworks, project selections, and how to create the elusive culture of innovation. The pro’s and con’s of deliberate processes and frameworks versus organic innovation. How to get, or provide, a specific mandate for innovation.
The scaffolding for mash-up thinking in the IdeaKeg framework is a necessary factor in any complex concept blend. What’s more powerful than IdeaKeg is an even broader concept blending framework. In fact, the combination of this new tool with those older frameworks can make those methods more effective.
Inexperience in: the kind of divergent thinking necessary to innovate, in specific meeting behaviors and facilitation skills, and in innovation process, approaches and frameworks. Yes, you can train people in creative thinking, Front-End-of-Innovation (FEI) frameworks, and in meeting facilitation.
Gregg knows several innovation frameworks, including Design Thinking and Osborn-Parnes Creative Problem Solving (aka “CPS). Gregg is recognized as a Distinguished Leader at the Creative Problem Solving Institute (CPSI) and is a Visiting Innovation Scholar at Notre Dame.
Deliberate concept blends, combinations, are not a defined part of existing innovation frameworks. Design Thinking, Agile, Lean, and older frameworks like CPS (aka Osborn-Parnes) are all attempts to find the system, the process steps, that will assist in repeating innovation. It’s a big missing, and, an opportunity to improve.
If you want to know about how to do that (training, team formation, usage of innovation project frameworks) — you know who to call. If you can afford to do an off-site innovation lab more power to you. If you can’t, innovate where you are, with who you have.
Essentially this is intensive, hands-on workshop that trains people in innovation frameworks, and tools for strategy, ideation, research, and project management. It’s next week Starting Wednesday February 1, continuing on Feb 2, finishing at noon on Feb.
