The Delft Innovation Method

Author: Jan Buijs
Publisher: Eleven International Pub
ISBN: 9789490947477
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 120

Book Description
This book deals with the process that leads to innovations. It provides an overall method for innovating in companies. As the method originated in Delft, it is called The Delft Innovation Method, and it consists of five interconnected elements: 1) a general model of the corporate innovation process; 2) a facilitative leadership style; 3) a diversely composed innovation team; 4) the use of creative techniques; and 5) the connection of the company to the external world. The Delft Innovation Method is written in a basic style with clarifying examples and illustrations. It starts a learning process on corporate product- and service-innovation. The metaphor of going on an 'innovation country tour of discovery' is used for structuring the book. It offers a general description of the future innovation country, a detailed roadmap of that country, and details are given about how to organize for this trip and how to find fellow travelers.

Engineering Drawing From First Principles is a guide to good draughting for students of engineering who need to learn how to produce technically accurate and detailed designs to British and International Standards. Written by Dennis Maguire, an experienced author and City and Guilds chief examiner, this text is designed for use on Further Education and University courses where a basic understanding of draughtsmanship and CAD is necessary. Although not written as an AutoCAD tutor, the book will be a useful introduction to good CAD practice.

More than just a series of tests, the book helps assess current understanding, diagnose areas of weakness and directs the student to further help and guidance. This is a self-contained text, but it will also work well in conjunction with the highly successful 'Manual of Engineering Drawing', by Simmons and Maguire.

Languages : en
Pages : 160

Book Description
Our globalising world, with interconnected societies and worldwide cooperation, with migration and ever-increasing digitisation brings together a complexity of cultural groups that need to live together. Consequently, it confronts designers with the challenge of facing cultural diversity in design. This book offers a detailed overview of both theory and practical methods to become culture sensitive in the 21st century design culture. Richly illustrated by anecdotes, examples and cases, this book motivates design students, practitioners and educators to reflect on their own cultural backgrounds, learn ore abou tthe theories around cultures and at the same time to stimulate them to put insights into practice. Culture Sensitive Designhelps not only to avoid mismatches between intended users and designs, but also to avoid mistakes that make our designs unacceptable for some groups of people. It is also needed to open up the design space, creating a great source of new and better solutions.
