Ingenuity Catalyst

There's a great resource from IDEO that you can use for yourself or in a team setting. Some of you may have seen the IDEO Method Cards but if you haven't, you can take a look at them here or buy them here.

They do not map out a linear method or process. I love that about them. The cards are designed as a way to jar your thoughts, shift your thinking, nudge you off the usual path. Take a look. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

If you need a bit more background, try the Fast Company article that features them.
