You will learn about the historical evolution of systematic innovation (SI), that beg an as early as 300 AD, and how the contemporary culmination is being a pplied by leading business and technology companies around the world. Several specific TRIZ and SI tools will be introduced and will include examples of their application to help companies innovate and how anyo ne can implement an innovation program within their organization.\n\nF inally, we'll learn how to transcend the contradictions that the Theor y of Constraints helps identify to help companies create their own Blu e Ocean, change organizational posture from cautiously watching for Di sruptive Innovations to becoming the disruptor and develop innovative solutions designed to meet the requirements set forth by Six Sigma and Lean programs.\nDavid Conley received his BS of Nuclear Engineering f rom Texas A&M University and his Masters of Finance from the Universit y of New Mexico. As an Air Force Officer he performed plasma physics a nd space nuclear propulsion research and served at Los Alamos and Broo khaven National Laboratories and on NASA’s Nuclear Safety Review Pan el. His private sector experience includes Johnson and Johnson, Philip s Semiconductor and Intel Corporation. Employed at Intel beginning in 1995 David has held a variety of engineering and management roles incl uding Competitive Intelligence Analyst. Certified by the St. Petersbur g school of the International TRIZ Association, David’s contribution s to the field of systematic innovation include: technical and busines s problem solving, methodology training, program integration and servi ng on the Executive Board of the US based Altshuller Institute for TRI Z Studies. In early 2007 he started Innomation, LLC: a consulting firm dedicated to the proliferaion of TRIZ and Systematic Innovation for B usiness. David has broad international business and engineering experi ence and lives in New Mexico, USA with his wife and their three sons.W hat is TRIZ?: TRIZ is a Russian acronym that stands for Teoriya Reshen iya Izobreatatelskikh Zadatch. The English translation is “The Theor y of Inventive Problem Solving.” The TRIZ methodology was conceptual ized and developed by Genrich Altshuller and his colleagues beginning in 1946 in the former USSR. His process involved reviewing hundreds of thousands of patents to understand how engineering systems evolved ov er time. Particular attention was paid to understanding how innovation was harnessed to solve difficult engineering problems in novel ways. Fundamentally, the objective of TRIZ is to discover how inventors inve nt. The development of TRIZ as an international science of creativity continues and has so far spanned over 60 years and encompassed the ana lysis of some three million patents.Elemental to the process is the un derstanding of how engineering system contradictions can be sufficed w ithout the use of compromise.TRIZ Main Postulate: Engineering Systems do not develop randomly but rather according to objective evolutionary trends. The evolutionary trends are a natural result of engineering s ystems competing for resources ($s, energy, political support, etc.) w ithin an economic, political, and technology environment. Analogous to the natural selection law from biology, the engineering systems most suited to the environment develop and flourish. The evolutionary trend s describe typical features of winning engineering systems.\n\nFor mor e information visit https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/events/tr iz-the-theory-of-inventive DTSTART:20090611T170000Z DTEND:20090611T183000Z CATEGORIES:free, webinar LOCATION:Aurora WDC Online Learning Service WEBSITE:https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/923067794 URL:https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/923067794 CONTACT:715-720-1616 ORGANIZER;CN="Arik Johnson":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/p rofile/ArikJohnson ATTACH;FMTTYPE="image/jpeg":http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/ file/get/2820267041?profile=original ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Bryan Do ran":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/BryanDoran ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Claudia Clayton":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/ClaudiaClayt on ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="corey hi rsch":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/coreyhirsch ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Alli Mar shall":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/AlliMarshall ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Georgian Dinca":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/GeorgianDinca ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Andrew B eurschgens":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/AndrewBeu rschgens ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Jordan F rank":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/JordanFrank ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Eric Gar land":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/EricGarland ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="August J ackson":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/AugustJackson ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Fred Wer geles":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/FredWergeles ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Michael Sperger":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/MichaelSperg er ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Suki Ful ler":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/SukiFuller ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Stoyan T anev":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/StoyanTanev ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="tena wal ker":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/tenswalker ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Liu Xiwe n":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/LiuXiwen ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Seena Sh arp":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/SeenaSharp ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Laura Wa lters":https://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/profile/LauraWalters ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Martha R .
