Creativity is Problem-Solving

Most people acknowledge that Innovation requiresCreativity.

Creativity is often viewed as only an artistic or

subjective endeavor. We believe thatC

reativity isin fact a set of problem solving processes and as

such can be managed and harnessed in a

consistent manner.

Innovation represents the application of various

creative processes towards specific goals. There is

no mystery, no magic just results

Continuous Innovation

One thing is clear the pace of change isincreasing everywhere.

The need to respond to Dynamic Change is

becoming an absolute requirement for doing

business it is no longer optional.

Continuous Innovation represents the ability to

build a consistent mechanism within any

organization that allows it to transform itself on aregular basis. In other words, the mechanism for

change is built-in rather than reinvented every 5

to 10 years.
