Systematic Inventive Thinking (SIT) is a rapid idea generation technique developed in Israel from an earlier Russian-invented 'Teoriya Resheniya Izobreatatelskikh Zadatch“ or TRIZ, translated as the 'Theory of Inventive Problem Solving”. TRIZ is a comprehensive but complex process, based on 40 physical contradictions, used very effectively for problem solving worldwide.
During the 1990s, Israeli academics developed a simplified and structured process from TRIZ principles, based on five ‘tools’ for wider application and much quicker results. This process was christened Systematic Inventive Thinking (SIT), and is now widely used across Europe and in the US as a highly effective, rapid, 'industrial strength', creativity process. SIT is one of the key tools underpinning Ideality’s ACTOR® innovation programme.
