I'm using a open collaboration model to work with Fortune 500 industrial design leaders to build new, breakthrough products that are not competitive with the corporate parents. It is really very exciting and we're inundated with great ideas. My suspicion is that when I open the platform up to everyday people, the ideas we get will be even better than the ones from the leading industrial designers. They may be less refined, but they will have a greater upside. I’ve read that McKinsey article and have been implementing that framework in my industrial design practice.

This is a win-win solution for the consumer and the organization. Hopefully more companies will realize the value add of this approach and make it a standard. Thanks for the prolific thought.
