Divergence --------> Transformation -------> Convergence

Step 2. Discover

Discover is the 2nd step in the novate Innovation Process and is where you instinctively and openly explore the previous design ideas or solutions to your problem. You review the solution space for alternate POV’s (Point-of-Views). This allows you to look at time and space domains that the deficiency exists in and reformulate multiple problems if necessary. It means you look at things with a different perspective, angle or change your preliminary assumptions and beliefs about the system structure that the problem resides in. Identification of system contradictions allows you additional stimulus and inspiration. This new solution space reflects an understanding of your personal paradigms, mental models and mindsets.
