The mindsets, tools, and methods presented in this book series have one significant objective: solving problems better. Metaphorically, our idea of problem- solving should be viewed as a magic cube that uses different technologies and varying states of mind to find better solutions for existing and future problems. Most important is to adopt a perspective shift that allows new enabler technologies to realize the corresponding market opportunities
To benefit from exponential change and growth, we also need strategies, tactics, and metrics that help us position the elements of the Magic Cube so that technology can flourish in the best possible way. In particular, combining different elements can also help gain a solid competitive advantage.
Specific capabilities can be learned to better deal with exponential change. These capabilities include understanding the advantages and limitations of emerging technologies and their implications and establishing mindsets that help identify the problem and enable radical collaboration among interdisciplinary teams while being open to fast adaptation and change.
Characteristics such as patience, mindfulness, visualization skills, robust and tested algorithms, and a culture of experimentation and failure are essential for prob-lem-solving and realizing innovations.
There are many possible options and combinations to solve ...
