Introduction
The primary reason for the need of Innovation is growth. Any innovation strategy that does not link to exponential growth will not succeed. Business innovation is about satisfaction and value, not new gadgetry. It aims to find a way to do something better than it’s ever been done before.
The Innovation Practitioner Certification Program includes:
- Introduction to Innovation
- EPV Model, Fiscal Objects, Formulating Contradictions
- Morphological Analysis, MUF, Inventive Problem
- Principles of FC, Method of Fantogramme, Ideal Final Result (IFR)
- RCT, SCT Operator, Resources-Key to Ideality
- Goldfish Methods, Universal Operators
- Root-Conflict-Analysis, Contradiction Matrix
- 9-Window SO, ISQ
- Tendencies Method, Introduction to S-curve Analysis
Course Benefits
This course will enable you to:
- Build different models of thinking from different perspectives and at different levels of abstractness
- Visualize the limitations of various thinking models
- Develop reflective skills necessary to enhance innovative skills
- Construct innovative solutions under different scenarios
- Develop skills to effectively break psychological inertia, stereo types in thinking and hence propose bolder solutions to problems
- Develop the ability to generate inventive problems form seemingly seen situation of no problems
- Develop the ability to evaluate strong solutions
- Develop the ability to solve Non Typical problems (Problems for which past solutions are unknown)
- Develop models of problem understanding and identification thereafter
- Develop the ability to obtain strong solutions while minimizing random trail and error
- Develop domain independent innovator skills to effectively innovate in any domain
- Develop the skills associated with forecasting future technological and process demands
- Enhance problem solving ability
- Develop the ability in the person to reduce the research space
Course Design
Each module comprises text and assignments. You are required to go through the content, complete the assignments and submit them to the mentors over email. You will be guided and mentored by a panel of experts through your journey in this certification program. The mentors will work closely with you and help you acquire the required expertise. Content Brief
Learn to Overpower Constraints to Innovation before they Overpower You.
In the competitive marketplace an individual has to excel in the role of an innovator and thought leader to be effective in “thinking within the box” or “thinking within the existing constraints of the system”. True innovators have consciously developed their skills in the following areas
- System Thinking or the ability to see the cause-and-effect linkages between useful and harmful characteristics or functions in a given situation. Some of the tools and concepts on System thinking included in this program are RCA+ (Root-Conflict analysis), Multi-screen thinking, Objective Trends of Evolution.
- Ability to envision the Ideal or Perfect scenario. Some of the tools and concepts on envisioning Ideal scenario included in this program are Ideal Final Result (IFR), Ideality, Heurithm for development of imagination, Modeling with Miniature Dwarfs (MMD).
- Ability to articulate and resolve Contradictions or Pardoxes or Dilemmas. Some of the tools and concepts on resolving Contradiction included in this program are Formulating the Inventive Problem (IP), ENV model, Contradiction Matrix, Principles for resolving Contradiction.
- Ability to see and exploit readily available Resources. Some of the tools and concepts on Resource thinking included in this program are Method of Focal Objects, Morphological Analysis, Size-Time-Cost (STC), Robinson Crusoe Technique, Fantogramme, Resource Identification Algorithm, Algorithm for application of Universal Operators.
- Generating strong solutions that remove Complexity in the way work gets done. Some of the tools and concepts that help remove Complexity are Evaluation of Solutions on Ideality, Resolution of Secondary Problems.
