Everyone knows about the importance of innovation. However, more than
95% of people use random methods to generate innovative ideas which
grossly depend on luck and individual talents. The field of Innovation
Methods is a new discipline which involve the development and usage of
systematic ways to generate innovative ideas. It includes systematic
innovation and random innovation. The application areas for innovation
methods include systematic strategic, managerial, or technical
innovations for strategy setting, opportunity identification and
problem-solving. The concepts of Innovation Methods (IM) came from the
studies of prior human wisdom and/or nature’s innovative problem
solving. In today’s furious competition, random innovation can only
help companies to survive but not enough to excel. Systematic
innovation methods will be many times more effective and efficient than
random innovation.
