Why a Non-Typical (Creative) Problem appear?

…The problems that exist in the world today

cannot be solved
by the level of thinking
that created them...
attributed to Albert Einstein

WANTED!
1. New thinking technology
for non typical problem solving process.
2. Dynamic self evolving mind is required
to survive in the world of accelerated rapid changes..

www.trizasia.com
Features of difficult problems

 Lack of methodology of
 problem understanding,
 problem identification,
 getting concept solutions
 objective evaluation of the concepts.
 Lack of resources: money, people, equipment etc.
 Complicated problem arise as a set of problems linked to each other.
 Research is necessary to clarify root of problem.
 Different demands contradict to each others
 Mental Inertia
 Social aspects
 Summary of several years research: several hundreds people of various
occupations, ages, cultures and nationalities around the World.
 Important: the features DO NOT DEPEND ON the problem nature: engineering,
management, art, social, politics, economy etc .

Which Mind is better well filled in or Well organized?

 Modern education system produces professionals with the mind well

filled in with typical solutions form the past.
 The current situation demands quick innovation which cannot be
provided by previous typical solutions. Cross disciplinary problem
solving instruments are needed to produce new typical solutions
quicker and more effectively than Trials and Errors Method that was
used in the past.
 well Dynamic and well--organized mind is challenge a new challenge
for education, industry and research.
 This mind should able to handle difficult non--typical problems.
 These problems are often complex and cross--disciplinary.
 Collaborative negotiation between different professionals is
necessary.
 This also requires efficient organization of the mind..

Main Problems addressed by TRIZ

 Applied theories usually have a key question they should give answer to
 The goal of applied theory is to increase the predictability of results and
decrease the amount of useless trial and errors
 TRIZ should answer the following question?

 How can satisfactory solution be

obtained without useless trial and
errors?

How TRIZ helps us solve problems

TRIZ provides us with Stairs:

It is easy and useful to overcome mental inertia
doing small steps towards right direction, than
make a big jump towards the wrong one
How it could be done ?
What are those Stairs ?

Author of TRIZ, OTSM and TRTL

Genrich ALTSHULLER:
“Trial and Error Method today is considered as a
synonym for Creativity. To increase productivity
of intellectual work scientific approach should be
applied…. “

Altshuller start this scientific research in 1946.

He was 20 years old…

1949 – First results and letter to Stalin.

1950 - Arrested. Sentence 25 years in prison.
1950 – 1954 – Gulag. First TRIZ application

Impact of TRIZ

Imagination is more important

than knowledge.
Creativity Knowledge is limited, while
imagination embraces the entire
Peak of Creativity
world.
- Albert Einstein

Learning TRIZ

The French psychologist, Antoine Ribot studied

the effect of age on creativity in the early 1900’s.
At what age do you think the average person
peaks? He found the age to be 14.
A few years ago MIT’s Sloan School of
Management repeated the study. They found
that the peak age of creativity had shifted down
to 12.

10-12 years old Age

 Axiom of root of any problem

Problem or
innovative situation

Nature: Objective factors Human : Subjective factors

What objective law ( factor) is Why we consider this effect
Contradiction
behind the negative effect ? as negative one?
What is positive effect ( our
subjective desire) that is
suffering from the negative
effect

Why we cannot use

typical solutions

www.trizasia.com
First question to ask when facing a Non typical
problem

How can I organize my knowledge

to narrow the area of analysis what
constraints should I apply?

Kings problem

 Once upon a time there was a country whose old king died. The king who replaced
him, right away wanted to show people how kind and trustworthy he is, and the
first thing he decided to do was to give all the inmates in the country’s prisons a
half amnesty. All the prison terms were to become two times shorter. there
However, appeared a difficulty that the king hadn’t noticed before. What about
those inmates life who had life—time sentences? What was he to do with them?

project. Concepts allow to reduce noise at operation of a vacuum
cleaner according to requirements of the Customer.

2. Ranking of designed concepts and multicriteria quantitative

estimation of their efficiency is made.

3. The most perspective direction is Conceptual direction 3: Change of

design of vacuum cleaner. This direction ensures maximal effect
according to the purpose of the project.

4. The most perspective concept with maximal effect on the purpose
