The TRIZ Inventive Problem Solving Process is a left-brained, highly creative method of problem solving which uses a basic algorithm developed through the study of millions of patents. Unlike psychological tools, which rely on sorting through hundreds of ideas in order to find the valuable few, TRIZ rigorously defines the problem and helps identify existing inventive principles that have helped solve other problems of the same class. It is also an invaluable aid for strategic business planning. The Ideal Result introduces the TRIZ Inventive Problem Solving Process in a way that allows readers to make immediate use of its most basic concepts. This book reviews the basic TRIZ algorithm tools, provides templates for analyzing your own difficult problems, and helps establish mental frameworks for finding your own solutions.

The Ideal Final Result introduces the TRIZ Inventive Problem Solving Process in a way that allows readers to make immediate use of its most basic concepts. The Ideal Final Result reviews the basics of this left brained, but at the same time, very creative process for problem solving that uses a basic algorithm developed through the study of millions of patents. As opposed to psychologically based tools relying on the generation of hundreds of ideas to be sorted through to find the few of value, TRIZ rigorously defines the problem and assists the problem owner in identifying the existing inventive principles that are already known to solve that class of problems. This book reviews the most basic of the TRIZ algorithm tools and provides templates for readers to use in analyzing their difficult problems and provides a mental framework for their solution. It also describes TRIZ techniques for basic strategic planning in a business sense.
