THE INVESTIGATE SKILLS

While there are many skills that help us to investigate ideas, we will focus on six core attributes critical to this phase of innovation:

1. To be analytical and structured
2. To work things through carefully and methodically
3. To involve customers and those who would benefit from an idea
4. To make sure the idea has potential to meet a real need
5. To help others be more methodical and organised in their thinking
6. To create an envivornment where people are encouraged to explore and question
