FOURSIGHT™

Foursight™ is a psychometric tool developed since 1990, for measuring peoples preferences in the innovation process. It helps people determine their preferred role or modes in the breakthrough thinking process.  The four preferences lead to four principle innovation roles:

The clarifiers - People who generally need to understand fairly deeply the issue at hand before supporting a methodological creative process.

The Ideators - People who are generally “big picture” thinkers and like to generate and play with lots of ideas.

The Developers - People who enjoy building upon workable solutions and take the time to improve these ideas so that they become easier to implement.

The Implementers - People who like to place the ideas in to action and work to ensure that what is committed to does take place.

All four styles are needed in the creative or innovative process but as we have preferences and our other team members have preference we need to ensure that we have a balance for the long term.

FOURSIGHT™ is used in a number of ways:

• In 1 on 1 or team coaching to give the participant(s) more information on their preferred working style in the area of creativity and innovation.
• In new team development programs to allow people to understand each others preferences and so work better together.
• In team development to help them see where their may be creative blockages.
• For people who are taking part in creativity or innovation workshop to gain a better understand of their preferences, as the four roles given, match the creative process required to generate ideas and make them actionable.

Currently FOURSIGHT™ is available in English and Spanish, with the English version being available online. The tool is supported by some excellent materials including The Innovation Roadmap, a self guiding creative process and also The Tool Card set, a range of 20 cards, with different techniques for each stage of the creative process.
