How Can YOU Become More Innovative?
![Page 24: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Becoming More Innovative
• The process of innovation
• How the brain works
• The application of the process
• Develop an Innovative Attitude
![Page 25: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The Process of Innovation
• Preparation• Idea Formation• Incubation• Illumination• Evaluation
![Page 26: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
How the Brain Works• Left Brain:• uses logic• facts rule• words and
language• order/pattern
perception• reality based• forms strategies• practical• safe
• Right Brain:• uses feelings• big picture
orientation• symbols and
images• philosophy &
religion• appreciates• spatial
perception• fantasy based• impetuous• risk taking
![Page 27: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Right Brain – Left Brain
![Page 28: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Right Brain – Left Brain
![Page 29: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Application of the Process
• You can’t just DO it (at least not right away).
• You must impose a structure on the process.
![Page 30: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Application of the Process
• Practice the three Cs: Clothes, Color, Count
• When getting dressed, look at the colors you are putting on. Quickly list as many alternative color names as you can.
• e.g: brown: warm brown, rust, young oak, toast, burnt sienna, burnt earth, squirrel, evening orange, café au lait, sun-kissed mahogany, rolling-in-the-mud Old Yeller.
![Page 31: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Application of the Process
• Use other people as sounding blocks:
• e.g: At a group gathering, start a progressive story about anything. A wacky group somewhere else in the country or world who is also just gathering.
• Each person adds a few sentences to the story.
![Page 32: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Application of the Process • Play the TV/movie game
• Study a character, and write down a dozen or so ways that he or she reminds you of yourself.
• Then, during the commercials, figure out a link between one of the traits and the product being advertised. Pick a different one for each commercial break.
• e.g: needs to go on a diet, is humorous, is a college grad, drives a red car…

Brainstorming• Turn it into a routine
• daydream, draw, visualize, doodle…• Do it while exercising, bathing,
walking• The subconscious is full of ideas• e.g: play Imagine with your idea or
product:• imagine if it spoke to you• imagine if it was a toy• imagine if it was a cartoon character
![Page 45: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

Six Thinking Hats• White: covers facts, figures,
information needs• Red: covers intuition, feelings,
emotions• Black: covers negatives and
problems• Yellow: covers logical and positive
sides• Green: covers alternatives,
provocations, changes• Blue: covers overview, process• 6 Hats helps by considering a
decision from several viewpoints
![Page 49: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Big Red Property Management Co.
• The directors are considering whether to build a new office building to rent out. The economy is doing well and vacant office space is decreasing.
![Page 50: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Applying the 6 Thinking Hats
• Black (devil’s advocate):• Government projections may
be wrong• If building is ugly, renters will
go elsewhere• Maybe the money would be
better spent buying up existing property
• Blue (process):• Keeps members from
criticizing each other
![Page 51: Innovation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816846550346895dde2264/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Applying the 6 Thinking Hats
• White (facts):• Consider current/future vacant office
space trends • Consider government projections on
economic growth
• Red (emotions)• Some directors feel the building will
be cost-effective but will look ugly
