The keys to innovate:

 

1- Observe the environment.
2- Analyze, criticize and interpret it in an original way.
3- Identify the most appropriate need and study its stability.
4- Find the best solution.
5- Adapt to the evolution of the environment by following a new cycle.

In the history of humanity, these actions have changed the world:

A- By turning to livestock farming and agriculture, man modifies his nomadic practices and moves towards an urban way of life.

B- By becoming sedentary he turn into a builder.

C- To carry out more and more ambitious construction projects, he must find new sources of energy:
  * hydraulic energy with water mills,
  * wind energy with the sails of boats, mills,
  * thermal energy initially with wood, coal, then gas, oil and today the sun.
  * the electrical energy,
  * the energy of matter, by nuclear fission and in the future by nuclear fusion.

D- With larger amounts of energy, it becomes possible to generate higher powers that require the use of new materials:
  * wood,
  * stone,
  * the bronze,
  * the iron,
  * the work of the metals makes it possible to improve their mechanical characteristics,
  * the manufacture of alloys and composite materials multiplies the possibilities of use,
  * 3D printing makes complex shapes possible.

E- Life in society favors bartering and opens the way to trade. The exchange of goods leads to the development of means of communication and exchange networks:
  * cave painting,
  * ideogram,
  * engraving,
  * papyrus,
  * writing on skin,
  * writing on paper,
  * telegraph network,
  * radio wave,
  * copper network,
  * ADSL network,
  * electromagnetic wave,
  * telecommunication satellite,
  * fiber optic network,
  * road,
  * highway,
  * railway,
  * port and sea route,
  * airport.

F- Exchanges of information and consumer goods generate new needs that favor the emergence of new machines and processes:
  * steam machine,
  * weaving machine,
  * printing,
  * photography,
  * pasteurization,
  * combustion engine,
  * phone,
  * automobile,
  * microprocessor.

Human innovation has never stopped and the company has the choice between two postures:
  * resist the evolution of the market,
  * be an actor of change.
