how the 'Meld' helped inspire be more innovative at work


The innovative product is called 'Meld' which can be simply equipped on your original gas & electric cooktops and help you be an experienced cooker to simply control the temperature well in the kitchen so that the dish will not be turned out undercooked or things will not be ended up burnt.

 The innovative product helped inspire me be more innovative at work:
Focus on a  problem. To be effective in an organization you have to bring to the table ideas that solve a problem or fulfill a dream fitting the expectations of your top management, otherwise nothing happens.

Identify customer frictions. Innovation is difficult because potential users of your new products or services must change their behaviour. You can identify customer frictions by reaching out to customers using personal visits, meeting them in focus groups, search in social media or using crowdsourcing.
Test your solution. Once you've developed an innovative idea or prototype the question remains: is this a great idea or not? Test your solutions based on customer feedback and use their enthusiast testimonials to get internal support.
Transform your idea into business. You might present your idea in a very original way: playing a movie, writing one huge post-it.
Show them how it's feasible. Be sure to think outside the box on one hand and to present your idea inside the box on the other.  So show them how it's feasible. And present partners to co-develop it with. Then your concept has a higher chance of becoming reality. And that's in the end what it's all about.
