Chapter 6 — Thinking Creatively
The creative thought process as a sequence: problem-finding through communication — not a single brainstorm.
Concepts & tools in this chapter

- Preparation — Gather information, constraints, and diverse inputs before ideation.
- Ideation — Generate volume and variety of options without premature judgment.
- Idea Verification — Test ideas against evidence, feasibility, and assumptions — distinct from killing ideas during ideation.
- Communication — Package the outcome so decision-makers can act — clarity and narrative matter.
