Transcript for Episode #007: Creative Problem Solving Stage 4 – Implement
Amy Climer: Welcome to The Deliberate Creative Podcast, episode #007. On today’s episode, we are going to talk about the fourth stage in the Creative Problem Solving Process – The Implement Stage.
Before we begin, I want to remind you that this is the last week of the podcast review contest and here is how it works. Everyone who submits a review on iTunes is entered to win one of two prizes – two people will be randomly selected to win a free deck of Climer Cards which I talked about in episode 5 and I’ll probably talk about it again. I’ll mail those cards to you and then one person and then one person who writes the best review will get free one-on-one coaching sessions with me.
The best review doesn’t necessarily mean a 5-star review because fortunately, there are a lot of those up there, but it means the review with the most depth and meaning. At the end of this episode, I’ll share a review with you one that is a great example. If you’re listening on your phone or if you’re on your computer while this episode is playing, go write a review. It means a lot to me and I really appreciate them.
This is the fourth episode in a four-part series covering each stage of the Creative Problem Solving process. If you are following along, then in the last episode you developed one or more ideas with the PPCO technique and you have a specific goal you want to move forward with. In this episode, you will be designing an action plan to help you implement your selected solution. To help you through the entire CPS process, I have created a free workbook for you. It has all the exercises from episodes 004-007 plus a couple bonus exercises in there for you. You can download the free workbook at ClimerConsulting.com/007. Go download that workbook and you could follow along with the episode.
What is the Implement Stage of the CPS? This is the stage where you put your ideas into action. For those of you who are do-ers, you will love this stage. As in the previous three stages, you will start with Diverging then move to Converging. As my friend, Mike Ford says, “you are going to make lists and then make choices. Then you’ll rinse and repeat.
