Hello there
The best aspect of teaching TRIZ is the positive effect it has on dedicated and clever technical and business teams – who quickly become TRIZ self-sufficient to better understand and solve their tough challenges.
One customer, Scania in Sweden, sent a team of 4 top engineers with over 40 patents between them, to learn TRIZ in Oxford. Together we all enjoyed a lively and slightly riotous time as they were eager to succeed in tackling their problems. After completing their Level 2, the Advanced Problem Solving workshop, they returned home to help others problem solve. In a Covid time Zoom meeting they said their TRIZ workshops were always successful, but as exhausting and satisfying as a tough maths exam. This 'Oxford Scania Team' said they wish they could expose everyone in their company to our workshops to transform their thinking and build better teams. Peter Linnarsson sent us this quote:
"A few years back we got the assignment from our, then, Senior Vice President & Head of Vehicle Development to 'have a look at this TRIZ method'. We were fortunate to be able to do Technical and Advanced TRIZ training with Oxford Creativity.
Quite a few TRIZ workshops later, we often talk about an aspect of doing TRIZ we weren’t really expecting, and that is just the fact that it brings cross functions together from the sense of 'we disagree on both the problem description and the solution' to: 'we have real cross functional understanding and agreement on what needs to be done'.
For us, as a big organisation, that is worth as much as the inventive aspect, if not even more.”
If you want to transform your thinking and practical problem solving approaches like Peter at Scania, then sign up today for our Fundamental Problem Solving live online course in September or Technical TRIZ in-person workshop in November, or one of our other courses or workshops as set out below.
