What is Psychological inertia (PI) ?


·        Deals with resistance to change due to human programming
·        Creates barriers to innovative brainstorming during problem solving.
·        Resulted from what a person has learnt before in the form of rules & regulations – do’s & dont's, tv, books, person we interact with
·        The knowledge or experience creates boundaries & restrictions in a person’s mind



What Is Creativity ?

From human motivation , By Robert E. Franken, he defines that “creativity is defined as the tendency to generate or recognize ideas, alternatives, or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems, communicating with others, and entertaining ourselves and others.”(California State University, Northbridge)

What is TRIZ ?

·         TRIZ is the Russian acronym for the “Theory of Inventive Problem Solving”. ·         It is a systematic problem solving method based on logic and data, not intuition or spontaneous creativity of individuals or groups ·         Developed by Genrich Altshuller and his colleagues from 1946 through to 1985 in the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) ·         It is based on the study of patterns of problems and solutions ·         TRIZ provides repeatability, predictability, and reliability due to its structure and algorithmic approach ·         It improves individual or team’s ability to solve problems Advantage of Triz : ·         Help to find multiple quality ideas in a systematic and efficient manner...

TRIZ process flow :

2 Key Steps : A)      Function Analysis •       Helps to clearly identify the  Engineering System . •       In function analysis we have the Supersystem, System and Subsystem. •       Subsystem – component within Engineering system. •       Supersystem – component outside system boundaries. Not designed as a part of the System. •       System – components interaction between subsystem. B)      Cause and Effect Chain Analysis •       Help to identify the fundamental root cause(s). •       These fundamental root causes are essentially the root causes of Engineering System problem which need to be resolved. Function can be categorized into two types : a)       Useful   i.     ...

TRIZ Tool : Structured Problem Solving What is Structured Problem Solving? Structured problem solving provides a systematic approach to advance from the identification of a problem to the solution. Step-by-Step Process 1.     Define Problem : Purpose •        Identify the problem and the importance of working on it Output •        Establish a team •        Develop Problem Statement 2.     Current Solution : Purpose •        Clarify the problem areas as the situation exists today Output •        Create a problem description 3.     Identify Causes : Purpose •        Identify and verify the root causes of the problem Output •        Isolate and verify the root cause of the problem 4.  ...
