DESIGN SOLUTIONS

•One who makes a difference in the lives of people around him

•One who thinks of giving something

•Promotes win - win situation

•Believes in man-making rather than polishing only the outside (when there is nothing inside)

•Thinks of “we” and not “I”

INTRODUCTION•Contributors approach the various situations in their life and work place

with a unique mindset. This mindset we call, the ‘Contributor Mindset’.

•The first aspect of the Contributor Mindset is the Contributor’s willingness

and capacity to find solutions

•When faced with a challenge, the Contributor’s first response is

“Can we find a solution?”

•But this is not all. The Contributor also “finds a solution”.

•Contributor develops the capacity to find solutions through continuous

practice and learning from other Contributors

CONCEPT EXPLORATION

People – Henry Ford on Model T. “Available in any colour as long as it is black”

System – Bureaucracy at work place BSNL : Bhai Saheb Nahi Lagega

Ideas (very critical !) “Nobody can pass the sound barrier” “Everything that can be invented has been

invented” “Our culture is doomed.”

Generating new possibilities is the first step in creating innovations.

HOW do you discover and create possibilities?

Start with yourself You probably have millions of good ideas

located right there in your head, already. You just have to get hold of them and pull them out.

 Learn about community  You need to gather enough information to

form an overall picture of people's interests, struggles, similarities, values, and differences

Think about the future we can make some educated guesses. And those

guesses may help us figure out next steps that work for our communities.

Get beyond hopelessness difficult time being creative and thinking about

new possibilities

Be courageous In order to be creative you may have to be

courageous. You may have to dare to think in ways that are different from others

Both the Wright Brothers never graduated from High School.

In 1889 the Wright Brothers started the West Side News

It was a weekly newspaper that Wilbur and Orville Wright published briefly in 1889 and 1891

In 1893 The Wright Brothers started a bicycle shop that allowed them to rent and repair bicycles.

Only 5 of the Wright Brothers’ bicycles exist to this day.

They gained the mechanical skills essential for their success by working for years in their shop with printing presses, bicycles, motors, and other machinery.

Their work with bicycles in particular influenced their belief that an unstable vehicle like a flying machine could be controlled and balanced with practice.

This shows their continuous dedication towards work and improving their skills.

When the world was thinking of ways to speed up travel on Land and Water, they came up with a completely new idea of travel by Air !!!

They further experimented in their own wind tunnel after being succeed in their first flight.

On October 20, 1904 the Wright Brothers flew the first complete circle in an aircraft.

The flight was 1 minute, 36 seconds and covered 4,080 feet.

In 1905, On October 5, Wilbur made an amazing flight in which he circled the field 30 times in 39 minutes for a total distance of 24 1/2 miles and the flight discontinued because he ran out of fuel.

• Non – Contributors give all type of excuses whenever some problem crops up which they know is going to push them to the extremes.

• For them, the glass is ‘always half empty’.

• Contributors, on the other hand, have a Will-Do attitude (not just can-do). The glass is ‘always half full’ for them.

• Having a such an attitude is actually about making a decision to look to the solution rather than just the problem.

• How to cultivate a ‘can-do’ attitude?

I can do everything, if its important enough for me to do.

I may not do all at once but I can do everything.

I may not be best at everything but I can do everything.

There will be limitations but I can do everything.

I’ll need help but I can do everything.

He had determined to set up a plant for Tana Nano in India.

He faced major opposition and struggled with The land acquisition controversy, acquisition of the proposed Nano factory of Tata Motors at [Singur] in Hooghly district, West Bengal, India.

Despite of all the problems faced by him, he didn’t lose hope and soon found a growing opportunity in Sanand, Gujarat.

His major concern all the way was not just his own profit but comfort to the middle-class.

Meaning of Failure

Ford’s failures at a glance

• He “burned” through all the money from his first group of investors without producing a car

• He eventually produced a car and raised another $60,000 in share capital, but his Detroit Auto Company went bankrupt

• In the 1920s, Henry Ford refused to update the Model T car, leading sales to fall dramatically

• Ford tried to launch a political career, but never succeeded

Contributor’s Mantra for “SUCCESS”

"Failure is simply an opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently."

- Henry Ford

We have recently witnessed some brave, brilliant Indians who displayed the essential qualities of a contributor.

They crossed disciplinary boundaries and gave up comfortable positions in their lives to contribute to their nation’s well-being.

Thank You
