Why tools, and why now?

1 min read2 of 14

Many people think creative people wait for inspiration. In truth, most of the creative people I have known don’t wait; they pick up a simple tool and begin. A tool opens the door when inspiration is late.

In this issue Fawzooz learns thinking tools one after another: SCAMPER, mind maps, the Six Thinking Hats, the Five Whys, and TRIZ. Then he turns them into daily habits that protect him from blocks and open the way to new technologies.

Don’t try to learn them all at once. Choose one tool, and try it this week on a real problem.

Prof. Dr. Mohamed Fawzi Elgendi
