The Logical Thinking Process
A major rewrite of Dettmer's classic Goldratt's Theory of Constraints, this new edition presents a whole new approach to building and applying logic trees. The logical thinking process referred to in the title is nothing less than a broadly applicable, systems-level approach to policy analysis. Dettmer has streamlined the process of constructing the logic trees while simultaneously ensuring that the results are more logically sound and closer representations of reality than ever before. He explains an easier, more logically sound way to integrate Current Reality Trees with Evaporating Clouds. His new version of the thinking process "retires" the Transition Tree in favor of the marriage of a more detailed Prerequisite Tree and critical chain project management. This book contains new examples of logic trees from a variety of real-world applications. Most of the diagrams and illustrations are new and improved. Explanations and procedures for constructing the logic trees are considerably simplified.

Publisher Description
Successful Problem Solving
A detailed text book of how to solve complex technical problems. This book takes the reader through a systematic approach to providing effective solutions. It starts with problem definition before using elegant tools tool to generate potential ideas that might solve the problem. Triz is heavily featured. The book takes you through a robust evaluation method (MCDA) before guiding you through implementation of the solution. Finally the book addresses whether the solution actually solved the original problem. There are additional chapters on workshops and facilitation.
Creating Innovative Products and Services
Really new products and services are scarce, yet the need for them is huge. That's why Innovation is an important managerial instrument - but many of us struggle with how to approach it. Gijs van Wulfen's Creating Innovative Products and Services is an essential read for anyone involved in new product or service design, brand development, new business development or organizational development because it 'unfuzzies' the front end of innovation with practical tools, effective checklists and an inspiring innovation route map. Gijs van Wulfen explains how to: ¢ Build a committed ideation team, compile a concrete innovation assignment and identify opportunities; ¢ Explore trends, technology and...
Inventive Thinking through TRIZ
TRIZ turns inventing into a controllable and systematic process. Within technology-oriented companies and institutions, this powerful method can help foster innovation through an extraordinary efficient and lean management of knowledge and data. In fact, TRIZ makes available all the knowledge of all the patents world-wide that can be used for the solution of practical problems. This book is of extremely practical importance to development engineers and planners in all areas of modern technology. Written for self-study, the book provides the reader in the most vivid manner with the key ideas, techniques and paradigms of the TRIZ method. The author is a former student of late Genrich Altshuller, who developed TRIZ in the former Soviet Union.
The Mind of the OutCompete Strategist
The sweetest moment of start-up life is the first big success. The very same moment is the most dangerous, too: start-up pops up on the competitive radar screens, and the competitive "killing blow," such as pricing war or patent litigation, is swift and inevitable.First volume of OutCompete Innovation Series discusses the business strategies that help a start-up to prepare ahead of time to this "killing blow" and withstand it. These strategies were extracted from experiences of Casio, Microsoft and many other strategic successes and failures.
