Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ)
Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ) developed by G.S. Altshuller and his colleagues in Russia between 1946 and 1985 is a well-known effective methodology to solve complex problems. It is a problem-solving methodology developed on the assessment of the repetitions of problems and solutions using logic, data, and research. TRIZ represents the output of over 2000 person-years worth of research into not just patents, but well defined successful problem solutions from all areas of human work. The number of Triz practitioners has grown 40% per year since 2007. Today many Fortune 500 companies successfully use TRIZ methodology in at least 50 countries.
