The innovation pyramid: a strategic methodology for impactful problem solving
Material type:
TextPublication details: United Kingdom Cambridge University Press 2021 Description: xi, 262 pISBN: 9781108825108Subject(s): Organizational change | Problem solving | Creative thinking | Diffusion of innovationsDDC classification: 658.4063 Summary: The Innovation Pyramid is a learnable, repeatable, non-linear, knowledge-based innovation methodology. While traditional books on innovation focus on either assembling an innovation team with the right combination of innate abilities or developing a creativity skillset, the Innovation Pyramid instead trains readers to produce serial innovations successfully. The original method segments innovation into four distinct yet interrelated stages: (1) identification of the root problem, (2) formulation of a solution, (3) development of an execution plan and (4) implementation. At all stages, it considers the perspectives of both the innovator and the adopter, in order to increase the likelihood that innovations will achieve significant impact. Section I of the book describes the over-arching method of innovating. Section II details the creativity-based process for implementing the Innovation Pyramid methodology. Finally, the book's appendices include advanced techniques to enhance the utility of the Innovation Pyramid method.
Provides an original innovation methodology that is consistently effective and easy to apply
Examines the complete innovation process, from problem identification through to implementation
Increases the likelihood that innovations will achieve significant impact, by considering both the innovator's and the adopter's points of view
