  3. “Claiming that something is
    impossible is nothing more than
    a temporary working hypothesis.
    Two plus two can equal five if
    something changes.”
    – Arne Naess

  15. Creativity isn’t about
    making additions; it is about
    making subtractions. Ideas
    need honing, simplifying
    and focussing

  18. Example 3:
    The space rocket

    View Slide

  19. “I tend to approach things
    from a physics framework
    [which] teaches you to
    reason from first
    principles rather than by
    analogy. So I said, okay,
    let’s look at the first
    principles. What is a
    rocket made of?
    Aerospace grade
    aluminium alloys, plus
    some titanium, copper
    and carbon fibre. Then I
    asked, what is the value of
    those materials on the
    commodity market? It
    turned out that the
    material cost of a rocket
    was around 2% of the
    typical price – which is a
    crazy ratio for a large
    mechanical product.”
    – Elon Musk

  20. First principles: breaking down
    and understanding the
    component parts of a system
    or solution, then reconfiguring
    them to create value

    View Slide

  21. Why are we doing this work?
    Understanding the reasoning and motivation behind any work that is
    being proposed, or has been started.
    Who are our users?
    Being able to describe who we think will need to use a service or solution.
    What outcome will users get from this service?
    Being able to describe why we think people will use a service or solution.
    What outcome are we looking for?
    Explaining the problem from the perspective of our organisation, and any
    operational constraints and problems to solve internally.
    What are our key metrics?
    Explaining how we intend to measure progress against these outcomes
    as we deliver the work.
    Framing the problem

  25. …put imagination back at the heart
    of how we think about the future,
    and about what kind of future we
    might create, the future that is still
    possible to create. Not a perfect,
    utopian future, but a future that
    recognises the limits imposed by
    circumstances as opportunities,
    and responds with imagination and
    care, creating a future where
    things turn out okay.

  27. “…we build our identity and our
    beliefs about what’s possible on
    the back of stories we take as
    true [but] we can control our
    stories, even when we can’t
    control the circumstances.”
    – Dr Pippa Grange (Fear Less)

  28. A future vision
    A better story

  29. A lack of ambition is
    also a lack of creativity
    and imagination

  30. Example 5:
    The true innovator

    View Slide

  31. “…inclusive innovations don’t require a dramatic
    reinvention of technology. They don’t require
    tearing down existing solutions to create new
    ones. Often, it’s just applying a new lens to the
    resources that already exist, and forming new
    combinations of existing solutions. It starts by
    employing new perspectives to reframe the
    problems we aim to solve.”
    – Kat Holmes, Mismatch

  36. “Matisse became a wheelchair user shortly
    after surgery for cancer. He survived for 20
    years and developed a method of cutting
    out shapes from coloured paper and having
    people stick them on large wall mounted
    sheets of paper for him.”
