Here is my contribution:
PROBLEM: Failure of Company ABC's suggestion box program:
PARADOX: Controlled freedom
ANALOGY: A country where excessive government control stifles free
enterprise.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
a) Self regulation by the contributors. E.g. People
take ownership for implementation of their own suggestions.
b) Company provides resource support structure.
Barry.. This is fun.. the technique is a neat way of helping 'out of the
box' thinking... Bryan
