He introduces a divergent thinking tool – CREATE – to build the momentum of ideation and generate many more ideas. Then he explains, using a mythological story how to overcome difficult constraints and solve the problem. Finally, he introduces “Innovation Flow” – a proprietary methodology that he has created and trained 1000+ innovators on.
