20 Some Activities ities to Test Your Right Brain How many ideas can you create with the How many ideas can you create with the following shapes?

21 Some Activities to Test Your Right Brain Find uncommon uses for common objects.

22 Some Activities ities to Test Your Right Brain Why not combine other ideas and create Why not combine other ideas and create new ones?

23 Picture Associations & Biotechniques Move a trapped team to fresh perspectives and solutions. Have a simple message Contain more than one object Are significantly different from issue Can create many reactions and connections Show structure of the animal in great detail Are anatomically correct Can be viewed from different angles - From The Creativity Tools Memory Jogger

24 Picture Associations Problem: How can we reduce solution defects? What elements in this picture might help us come up with some ideas?

25 Biotechniques Problem: How can we improve requirements? What associations or analogies might you make with this living thing?

26 Now you try! 1. Pair up 2. One of you pose a problem 3. The other one suggest an animal 4. Think of the living things structure, habits, daily functions, and other characteristics. 5. Both of you brainstorm some associations or analogies.

27 Intuition As problems become more complex, the need to use intuition in problem solving becomes more critical. Research and experience indicate that complex problems almost defy rational analysis. They require the ability to see connections among numerous variables, connections that t often are not discernible in the rational approach. - James M. Higgins, 101 Creative Problem Solving Techniques

28 Helping our career Companies are looking for a balance of technical and soft skills (example facilitation) Show ways you have thought outside the box (example ideas that came from you or the team you were in) Show your outside interests, but make the connection to how it improved your work (example - coaching a baseball team and it s relation to managing projects)
