The Creative Problem Solving (CPS) method, better known as CPS, is a comprehensive process of creativity and innovation originally designed by Alex Osborn -creator of brainstorming- and Sidney Parnes -University at Buffalo- in the USA in 1945.
The method has evolved over the years, and now we have expanded the method to include the latest scientific discoveries on how to solve problems in a more original and creative way. Additionally, the group and organizational context have been incorporated as key components in the application of the process.
