On June 30, 2017, the company carried out a training on "management innovative thinking and methods". The lecturer was Mr. Li Hong, who had worked in IBM, Nokia and other companies. Representatives of various departments and sections participated in the training.

Mr. Li's lecture is eloquent, with an approachable style and a prominent content, mainly including: innovative concept understanding, innovative thinking and innovative methods. The teacher combines classic cases to explain innovative theories, making it easier for everyone to experience and resonate. In class, the teacher spent a lot of time explaining innovative thinking-all in the brain. Through the activity of selecting the most suitable personality card, Mr. Li tested and analyzed everyone's thinking preferences. She advocates that people should give full play to the advantages of their own character, improve the disadvantages of their own character, and find a suitable role. Managers must divide the work according to their personality preferences to build a whole-brain team, thus enhancing the team's cooperation and innovation.

This training on management innovative thinking and methods not only recommends many practical working methods in innovative fields, but also cultivates everyone's innovative thinking and consciousness, which is of great benefit to breaking the mindset and rigid thinking mode.

Knowledge review

Problem Solving Tools:

1. Fishbone diagram method. It is a kind of analysis method to find the "root cause" of the problem, which is divided into problem type, cause type and countermeasure type fishbone diagram and so on. The characteristics of the problem are always affected by some factors, we find out these factors through brainstorming, and together with the characteristic values, according to the correlation of the hierarchy, clear, and marked the important factors of the graph is called the characteristic cause graph, characteristic cause graph. It is an analytical method to see the essence through the phenomenon.

2. Logical tree method. The logic tree is a hierarchical listing of all the sub-problems of the problem, starting at the highest level and gradually expanding downward. Think of a known problem as a trunk, and then start thinking about what related problems or subtasks the problem is related. At every thought, add a "branch" to the problem (that is, the trunk) and indicate what the "branch" represents. A large "branch" can also have small "branches", and so on, to find out all the related items of the problem. The logic tree is mainly to help you sort out your thoughts without repetition and irrelevant thinking.

The 2/8 rule. Pareto's Law (also known as the Law of Twenty-Eight) was discovered by the Italian economist Pareto in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In any group of things, the most important only accounts for a small part, about 20%, while the remaining 80% is the majority, but it is secondary. The enterprise mainly focuses on the management of 20% of the backbone, and then drives 80% of the majority of employees with 20% of the minority to improve the efficiency of the enterprise.

Innovative approach:

1. Reverse method. It contains opposite principles, opposite functions, opposite processes, opposite positions, opposite causes and effects, opposite procedures, and opposite concepts.

2. Combination techniques. Includes subject addition, homogeneous combinations, heterogeneous combinations, sharing and complementing combinations, and conceptual combinations.

3. Mind map method. Mind mapping is a new mode of thinking that combines the concept of the whole brain. Through mind mapping, it can not only enhance thinking ability, improve attention and memory, but more importantly, it can inspire our associative power and creativity.

4. Six thinking hats. The Six Thinking Hats is a thought training model, or a model of comprehensive thinking, developed by Dr. Edward Bono, a British scholar. It provides a tool for "parallel thinking" and avoids wasting time arguing with each other. The emphasis is on "what can be", rather than "what is itself", is to seek a way forward, rather than arguing about who is right and who is wrong. Using De Bono's six thinking hats will make chaotic thinking clearer, turn meaningless arguments in groups into brainstorming creations, and make everyone creative.

The six thinking hats have two main purposes: to simplify thinking-to allow the thinker to do only one thing at a time.
