Often, the most difficult part of any creative process is just getting started; preparing for the tasks at hand by putting the necessary structures in place that will bring the project to fruition. Neologisms and provisional project titles, for example, create space where new ideas can emerge.

And despite innovation supposedly being a mature topic inside organisations worldwide, the number one global blocker to innovation culture is the lack of consistent definitions of innovation inside organisations! This approach is about breaking away from the rigid mindsets and structures that tend to stifle creativity.

When you do not have a clear definition of design thinking of where and how it can actually fit, how it works or means, it continuously suffers from a lack of clear assignment, it makes it feel a little bit of an oddball. You might like the idea but will the boss?

Definitions differ. If you go too far–like 3M did when they applied the rigorous Six Sigma model to its creative process–you might actually get less of what you really want.
