This PPT slide, part of the 27-slide Workshop Facilitation Techniques (Volume 2) PowerPoint presentation, presents an overview of the TRIZ facilitation technique, which is designed to enhance creative problem-solving within groups. It emphasizes the method's ability to help teams address complex issues by considering the opposite of the desired outcome. This approach encourages participants to think divergently, fostering an environment where innovative solutions can emerge.
The description section outlines the origins of TRIZ, noting its development by Genrich Altshuller in 1946. It highlights that TRIZ, sometimes referred to as TIPS (Theory of Inventive Problem Solving), is rooted in a systematic approach to invention-related challenges. This historical context adds credibility to the technique, suggesting that it is grounded in rigorous thought and practice.
The application section elaborates on how TRIZ can be utilized in workshops. It describes the technique as game-like, which can make the process more engaging for participants. By envisioning ideal scenarios that could prevent undesired outcomes, teams can identify barriers more effectively. The structured creativity exercise is best suited for small groups, typically comprising 5 to 8 participants, which allows for focused discussions and deeper exploration of ideas.
Lastly, the requirement section specifies logistical needs for implementing TRIZ. It indicates that ample space is necessary for larger groups to break into smaller pairs or trios, facilitating parallel work. This practical insight is crucial for organizers looking to adopt the technique, ensuring they can create an environment conducive to its successful application. Overall, TRIZ offers a structured yet flexible framework for enhancing group creativity and problem-solving capabilities.
