Today’s problems are a new breed—open, complex, dynamic, and networked—and require a radically different response. In this book, Kees Dorst describes a new, innovation-centered approach to problem-solving in organizations: frame creation. It applies “design thinking,” but it goes beyond the borrowed tricks and techniques that usually characterize that term. Frame creation focuses not on the generation of solutions but on the ability to create new approaches to the problem situation itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe strategies Dorst presents are drawn from the unique, sophisticated, multilayered practices of top designers, and from insights that have emerged from fifty years of design research. Dorst describes the nine steps of the frame creation process and illustrates their application to real-world problems with a series of varied case studies. He maps innovative solutions that include rethinking a store layout so retail spaces encourage purchasing rather than stealing, applying the frame of a music festival to understand late-night problems of crime and congestion in a club district, and creative ways to attract young employees to a temporary staffing agency. Dorst provides tools and methods for implementing frame creation, offering not so much a how-to manual as a do-it-yourself handbook—a guide that will help practitioners develop their own approaches to problem-solving and creating innovation.Series Foreword vii\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments xiii\u003cbr\u003ePreface xv\u003cbr\u003e1 Challenges 1\u003cbr\u003eWe are not solving our problems anymore 1\u003cbr\u003eThe challenges 9\u003cbr\u003eMoving forward 18\u003cbr\u003e2 Pioneers 23\u003cbr\u003eThe Young Designers foundation 23\u003cbr\u003eThe Designing Out Crime center 30\u003cbr\u003eLearning from the pioneers 37\u003cbr\u003e3 Lessons from Design 41\u003cbr\u003eFour questions about design 41\u003cbr\u003eAn anatomy of design practices 55\u003cbr\u003eFive lessons from design 59\u003cbr\u003e4 The Frame Creation Model 73\u003cbr\u003eFrame creation 73\u003cbr\u003eCase studies 80\u003cbr\u003eFirst remarks 97\u003cbr\u003e5 The Principles and Practices of Frame Creation 99\u003cbr\u003eThe principles of frame creation 99\u003cbr\u003eFrame creation practices 109\u003cbr\u003e6 The Open, Complex, Dynamic, and Networked Organization 121\u003cbr\u003eDriving innovation 121\u003cbr\u003eToward frame innovation 126\u003cbr\u003e7 The Three Challenges of Frame Innovation 133\u003cbr\u003eSeeing differently 134\u003cbr\u003eThinking differently 135\u003cbr\u003eDoing differently 143\u003cbr\u003e8 The Art of Frame Innovation 151\u003cbr\u003eMaking it happen 151\u003cbr\u003ePath to action 171\u003cbr\u003eAppendix 1 An Expert Designer at Work 177\u003cbr\u003eAppendix 2 Is Design \"Searching\" or \"Learning\"? 183\u003cbr\u003eAppendix 3 More Research Is Needed 187\u003cbr\u003eAppendix 4 Inspiration 189\u003cbr\u003eReferences 193\u003cbr\u003eIndex 201\"Kees Dorst manages in his new book \u003ci\u003eFrame Innovation: Create New Thinking by Design\u003c\/i\u003e to provide a practical new approach to design-led innovation.
