We begin by breaking down the four key stages of creative problem solving: Clarify, Ideation, Develop, and Implementation. Each stage is a crucial part of transforming challenges into innovative solutions. We also share a surprising story about elevators and the unexpected lessons they teach us about perceiving and tackling problems and why expanding the solution space is essential for finding the right answers that resonate with the right people. Additionally, we explore the concept of setting direction based on hypotheses rather than rushing to solutions and how this shift can lead to more impactful outcomes. And by the end, we will make you consider whether you need to change your approach or simply add "lubricant" to your current one. This question will highlight the importance of evaluating the root of the problem.
