A powerful mix

Complexity and competition keep growing. The secret of an ideation process that is fast and divergent enough, lies in combining the right kind of convergent ingredients and enough quality divergent ingredients. Torch accelerates the process of generating a wide variety of quality divergent ingredients by using a multidisciplinary and multisensory approach.

Convergent Ingredients

They are information directly related to your challenge. You need to illuminate enough of these and of the right kind.

Divergent ingredients

You launch your torches far away to illuminate concepts and information that are less connected to your starting point.

Multidisciplinary

Torch helps you illuminate a very diverse field of divergent ingredients by using multiple disciplines and senses. This enriches enormously the process and accelerates the generation of innovative ideas.

Mixing it all

To generate innovative ideas that are relevant, convergent and divergent ingredients have to be combined in the right way. That process has some key requirements. Torch guides you to get that mix right.

Using all your potential

The ideation exercises of The Torch Principle are divided in 7 modules.

SEED: We throw torches using verbal-linguistic skills and visualization through individual and group exercises.

VISUAL: Torches are thrown using drawings and visual skills with a variety of strategies.

GESTURE: Time to move and interact. We use our bodies and interaction skills to throw new torches wide and far.

PATTERN: Anonymous and concrete visual textures become torches that take us in unexpected directions.

EMOTION: We contemplate our challenge from an emotional perspective by throwing emotional torches.

CONTEXT: Changing the context around our challenge through a variety of strategies provides further enrichment for our collection of ingredients.

MEDITATION: Acoustic-musical skills combined with visualization and other strategies provide more torches and expand our divergence capabilities.
