I am working on the draft of part 2 of my series on "Solutioneering" and starting thinking about how
cracking the problem, fits into a product managers frameworks and methods. This in turn lead me to pondering on how to trigger some focused, creative thinking when approaching a customer request for a proposal - how could this fits into an innovation cycle - how to think out of the box?
I came across a video
blog post by Scott Anthony from Innosight, which outlines a suggestion of 4 things to think about when you are stuck - in essence, how to think like an innovator.
- Keep an external focus - this one has particular resonance with "solutioneering" and understanding the customer problem, but more of that in a later post.
- Learn from your mistakes
- Embrace your inner Edison
- Resist the pull of the core.
The
blog post is only 2 minutes and 58 seconds - take some time to go and watch it, it will keep you busy, and give me some time to finish up my next post.
