Creative Problem Solving and Opportunity Finding (Decision Making and Operations Management)

Rating:
Summary: Excellent resource for creative problem solving only
Review: From a creative thinking/problem solving standpoint, this is a excellent resource. From a opportunity finding viewpoint, it's quite disappointing, personally speaking. Although the coverage on the aspect of creative thinking is very broad and somewhat deep in many respects, with good, useful strategies/techniques and examples to follow, it does not offer much in terms of opportunity finding approaches for the business reader. For that, you need to buy and read Michel Robert's "Innovation Formula", and/or Edward de Bono's "Opportunities", and/or & Nigel MacLennan "Opportunity Finding." Neverthesless, this book is still worthwhile to be bought/read and kept in your personal library. Reading it is like reading many creative thinking books in one go. The author drew a lot - I mean really a lot - of creativity stuff from other books.
