IDEATION PROCESS“New ideas come from seeing, smelling,
hearing – being there”.
Tom Kelley – IDEO
Ideation
• Step 1: Idea collection
• Collection of material from various groups or your target customer base
• Brainstorming on specific problems
Ideation
• Step 2: Idea screening
• Gate 1: Smell test. Is the opportunity logical, fair, legal, and ethical? Does it address a visible company or market need?
• Gate 2: Financial impact. Will this opportunity help the company achieve its revenue expectations? Will it require an incremental investment over budget or divert committed resources?
• Gate 3: Strategic Impact. Does the opportunity provide brand building, product line enhancement or IP value according to the company’s goals?
