Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this design class:

The Process Innovation and Design course follows a systematic innovation roadmap, as featured in the best-selling book, “The Innovator’s Toolkit”, to identify intractable problems or unmet needs, generate novel and unusual ideas, analyze the most promising concepts, develop robust solutions, and test the end product or process.

You’ll learn a broad set of thinking skills within a complete roadmap that takes you from problem identification through ideation to implementation and finally commercialization (when appropriate).

This course offers you the opportunity to work on real business challenges with guidance from the innovation experts behind The Innovator’s Toolkit: 50+ Techniques for Predictable and Sustainable Organic Growth. As a participant, you’ll learn the authors’ unique approach for innovating and designing new products, services, processes and business models.

With a hands-on, applied focus, this course teaches innovation and design thinking in a workshop environment that focuses on redefining innovation from a black area to a systematic problem-solving science.


Detailed Information

Unlike most creativity courses that focus only on idea generation and design courses that focus only on refining existing ideas, this course teaches you a diverse set of tools within a complete roadmap that takes you from problem identification to ideation to implementation to commercialization.

The Process Innovation and Design course follows a systematic innovation roadmap, D4 (Define, Discover, Develop and Demonstrate) to identify unmet customer needs, generate ideas to fulfill those needs, analyze the most promising solutions and test the end product/process. It enables you to do this within a purely innovation context, or as an enabler to your Lean Six Sigma program or project.
