them

these people will be the ones who use it.
2. The customers – The people you use the products or
services of your organization. They might not be the users
of your solution ( if the problem that you are solving are
internal). Nevertheless, if your innovative ideas affect the
customers in any way, their input should be considerate.

DISCUSS AND DEVELOP IDEAS WITH OTHERS
 Different groups of people have different interests and
priorities.
The following are a few tips for approaching people to get
their feedback
• Be a good listener. When speak, be clear, concise, polite,
and respectful.
• Show or demonstrate an example or a prototype of the
ideas. A prototype represents an early sample of a
product or service, usually built to communicate or test
an idea. A prototype ca be a picture, a sketch of the
idea, or a model. Find ways to re-create the look and feel
if you are designing a new experience.

DISCUSS AND DEVELOP IDEAS WITH OTHERS

• Surveys can be used to gather data from many people while

a group discussion or individual interview can provide in-
depth information.
• When pitching your idea in a meeting, address the users’
pain points, discuss the needs, make it clear why and how
your solutions can solve the problem.
• When approaching the management and the experts, do your
homework. Highlight the impact of your solutions, what will
be saved ( how much staff time, how much materials, how
much money)? What opportunity will be created ( how much
better customer reach, staff satisfaction, user experience)?
