Based on TEDx Talk by Giovanni Corazza

We’re often asked

ASIMPLE

QUESTION

To..

Er ..

Not that easy?

Well,it is.

All you need to dois answer the following Q’s

WHICH BOX

The box that we live in..

Make an escape

WHY

To break the MONOTONY

HOW?

From Convergent to Divergent

Expand your horizons..

Engage in long thinking..

Accept yourself ,as an inventor..

Resist the temptation to get back into the BOX..

Where?

Dare to venture where you

otherwise wouldn’t

Think of the impossible

Serendipity happens all the time,

we just need to have the eyes,to notice that.

AN EXAMPLE

Innovation in TEDx

Convergent Approach:1.Brilliant speaker2.Excellent theme3.Fast speaker to Speaker transition4.Grand setting

Now, Divergent Approach..

Choose the grand setting as the Stadium..Instead of a Theatre

Mind immediately tries to kill the IDEA

A Great idea .. TRASHED.

But what if you choose to think more about it..

A stadium already filled with audience..

And have a talk during half time of the matches?

Consider another element..

Brilliant Speakers

Eliminate “Brilliant”

An average Speaker? What? Does that even make sense?

What if.. We have brilliant speeches..

And speaker to speaker transitions..A duo?A Trio?Maybe.

Bazinga! There you are.

Its all inside you..

Just bring it out,and see the difference.

Thank you
