Module 2: COMMUNICATE INNOVATION CHALLENGES
Learn how to use a Blue Card to clearly communicate your innovation challenge and elicit meaningfully unique ideas that are in direct alignment with your strategic goals.
- Skill 1 — Meaningful Uniqueness
- Skill 2 — Strategy Activation – Blue Card
Module 3: Generate Ideas

- Skill 3 — Stimulus & Diversity
- Skill 4 — Exploring Stimulus
