Outline of Final Research Achievements

There is an increasing need from companies to train employees, when facing a demanding task, on creative and innovative problem-solving using their expertise and skills. In order to improve the innovative thinking　process in companies, we propose and develop an idea-creation system, based on the haiku gathering method that derives from the traditional Japanese culture.　Following the rules defined in each stage of this method, our experiments show that, the proposed method is the most effective tool at supporting users with creative thinking.　The experiments are conducted in Web environments, and the efficiency of our method is validated by the final plan which is greatly improved through the processes of proposal, selection, estimation, and communication.　Our method is expected to be applied for the real management in large companies.
