Abstract:
The world has changed and requires different competencies and skills. Creating new IT products demands breaking free from ‘conventional’ thinking. IT industry representatives emphasize that professionals need to be creative and capable of identifying the values and ‘gems’ within user requests to craft innovative, revolutionary, valuable, and useful IT products. However, is creativity an attribute of specific individuals or is it inherent to many? Research shows that creativity can be developed and nurtured, much like any other skill. The creation of innovative products can be guided by certain rules and techniques that can be learned by transcending ‘conventional’ thinking. The brainstorming method is often mentioned for fostering creativity, but it might not be entirely effective in the context of innovation and ingenuity. This article provides an overview of various methods, approaches, and techniques for generating creativity, with a particular focus on the theory of inventive problem-solving and its application within the IT industry.
