Is your organization’s innovation pipeline running dry? The problem might not be a lack of talent, but a lack of process.
We often mythologize creativity as a rare gift, something people either have or don’t. But the reality is far more empowering: creativity is a skill that anyone can perfect and grow. For true innovation to thrive, leadership must champion a structured approach.
The Creative Problem Solving (CPS) process offers a powerful framework for this strategic development:
- Clarify: Deeply understand the challenge you’re facing.
- Ideate: Generate a high quantity of potential solutions.
- Develop: Refine those ideas into tangible solutions.
- Implement: Create a strategic plan for execution, identifying resources and allies.
By consciously following a deliberate process, we can move beyond the “quick solution syndrome” and unlock more reliable, creative breakthroughs. This is how we build a culture of sustainable innovation.
What steps are you taking to systematize creativity and drive meaningful results in your organization?
