Creative Problem Solving

According to an IBM survey, 1,500 Chief Executive Officers from 60 countries and 33 industries worldwide believe that creativity is the most vital skill needed to successfully navigate our increasingly complex world. Why? Because every endeavor in life involves problem solving, and novel thinking is required and appreciated. Fogpilot uses research-driven assessments and proven methods to create and develop new ideas.

When design challenges start with a foggy front end, context needs clarifying, possible solutions need exploration, and, ideas, once prototyped and developed, must be crafted with care as they become a reality.

Knowing how (and when) to think divergently and convergently is a skill than can be developed. If various stages of this process are misunderstood, under appreciated, or skipped, problems are exacerbated and opportunities go unrealized. Wouldn’t we all benefit from a clearer understanding of how we prefer to solve problems more creatively?
