THE CYCLE OF INNOVATION


Innovation has become one of today's most popular buzzwords, especially in the world of business and enterprise.

In this short discuss, I will try to share my understanding of the innovative process.

Facts-Information-Knowledge-Imagination-Creative Thinking-Innovation

This is the innovative process.

It begins with the acquisition of facts. Fact when interpreted and understood, it becomes Information.

A person who has wide spectrum of data and information is said to be knowledgeable. Knowledge is the natural consequence of the acquisition of data and information.

With such breadth of knowledge, people can increase their ability to imagine and allow their minds run wild.

"Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand."....Albert Einstein

In other words imagination will take you to the boundless frontiers of endless possibilities.

An with the gift of a great imagination comes the ability for creative thinking or creative problem solving.

When creative thought is successfully engaged to solve certain problems in such a way that the solution so created becomes practical; Innovation is born.

Have a great day.
