Give yourself the gift of knowledge — subscribe to Big Think Edge: http://bit.ly/bigthinkedge To reach a breakthrough solution to any problem, it's necessary to first understand the underlying causes. - Companies often jump right into workshopping solutions to a problem before they truly understand the underlying source and "pain points" of the issue. - Deliberate Innovation CEO, Dan Seewald, advises companies to visualize and map out those unmet needs in order to discover a new path to a fresh solution. Only then should you move onto brainstorming and ideation techniques. - These important steps allow for more meaningful experimentation, as well as greater opportunity for learning and breakthroughs.
