Why mockups?
Narrowing in on a solution?
What changes in their process in order to focus on completing a viable solution?
Vote on preliminary ideas* narrows the field of ideas to be
considered * depersonalizes the judgment (ideas on board, post-its)
Leaders take charge to appoint advocates of design criteriaBuild a prototype
requires win-win negotiation; enables richer feedback on the
solution
Narrowing it down?
Types of Teams
•Task forces
•Committees
T-shaped person
What causes a person with deep skills but little wingspan to suddenly reach out to share information with her teammates? Namely this: empathy
Tim Brown, CEO and president of IDEO, alludes to the role empathy plays in the T-shaped person
We look for people who are so inquisitive about the world that they’re willing to try to do what you do. We call them “T-shaped people.” They have a principal skill that describes the vertical leg of the T — they’re mechanical engineers or industrial designers. But they are so empathetic that they can branch out into other skills, such as anthropology, and do them as well. They are able to explore insights from many different perspectives and recognize patterns of behavior that point to a universal human need. That’s what you’re after at this point — patterns that yield ideas.

Collaborative Responses Symptoms of Intellectual-Centrism
Information Search Distribute attention to technological and user benefit information among both engineers and marketers
Focus attention on technological information among engineers and user benefit information among marketers
Idea Sampling Sample information across disciplines for marketable innovation
Sample information primarily from one’s own disciplines for marketable innovation
Idea Generation Generation of ideas from multidisciplinary perspectives
Generate ideas primarily from one’s own disciplinary perspective
Idea Editing Open to suggested revisions of one’s own ideas from people with different disciplinary backgrounds
Resist suggested revisions of one’s own ideas from people with different disciplinary backgrounds
Dissemination Stress Experience low stress when presenting ideas to an audience with different disciplinary backgrounds
Experience heightened stress when presenting ideas to an audience with different disciplinary backgrounds
Managing Conflicts in Work Team
Attribute conflicts to disputants’ personal qualities or experiences; prefer problem-solving strategies
Attribute conflicts to crash of disciplinary perspectives; prefer competitive strategies

Understand and promote integrative research
• Scientific and technological innovations often involve collaborations across disciplines and functional groups.
• Mixed findings for the effects of functional diversity… • We propose a model and the research it organizes for
understanding and promoting integrative research.
14
A cultural perspective to integrative research(Chiu & Kwan, 2010; Proctor et al., 2011, Chiu, Kwan & Liou, 2014)
We propose that disciplinary or professional cultures are like national cultures in that they are reproduced through institutionalization of cultural practices.
Professional enculturation:
1. Provides a foundational schema to structure knowledge acquisition, organization, and generation in a discipline
2. leads to Intellectual Centrism —the belief that one’s disciplinary perspective is the only applicable and valid perspective in the current domain of inquiry (Banerjee & Chiu, 2008).

among those who perceived relatively large value differences between engineering and marketing, business students looked at consumer information 9.41 times more than they looked at technological information, while engineering students looked at technological information 2.31 times more than they did consumer information.
22
Study 2: interdisciplinary learning goal to mitigate the adverse effect of intellectual centrism (Kwan, & Chiu, in preparation)
Manipulation the salience of an interdisciplinary learning goal:
In the Difference Aware-Interdisciplinary Learning Condition, participants were instructed to think of five ways in which people in their discipline approach a problem differently from people in the other disciplines, and then to recall a personal experience in which they learned something new and important from an individual coming from a different discipline.
Result: When participants found it difficult to recall either experiences of learning from their own discipline or similarities between disciplines, they gave up ideas from their own discipline and relied on ideas from the other disciplines exclusively.

Study 5: Intellectual Centrism: Field Study at DCB (Liou, Kwan, & Chiu, in preparation)
We interviewed and surveyed the administrators and scientists in the Development Center for Biotechnology (DCB) in Taiwan, a public organization set up to facilitate synergy of governmental, academic, and industrial efforts in biotechnology. Given that the DCB engaged both academics and nonacademics in integrative research, two subgroups in the organization, each with its distinctive values, were identified.The more motivated or mastery-oriented the participants were in achieving their valued research goals, the more strongly they felt that their organization should adopt the research development policies that were congruent with these participants’ value orientations.
26
academics (research-oriented)
nonacademics (business-oriented)
Value clash between the subgroups was a frequently mentioned source of disagreement and mistrust within the organization.
Valued intrinsic motivation for doing research, emphasizing the importance of intrinsic factors (e.g., research interest, intellectual challenge) as the primary drivers of research engagement.
Saw marketability of new ideas and extrinsic factors (e.g., the feasibility and profitability of a project, implications of the outcome of a project for the reputation of the DCB) as the primary drivers of research activities.
different perceptions of what constituted innovation and preferences for different policies for managing integrative research.
favored developing basic science instead of its marketable applications, and having global and predictable research expectations that supported long-term research,
favored marketable discoveries and a research environment that allowed adaptation to unplanned contingencies through local, flexible adjustment of research objectives and scopes.

Study 6: need for change & Polyculturalism: Field Study at ITRI (Chiu, Liou, & Kwan, in preparation)
Findings 1. When employees want stability in their organization, the
belief in mutual influence of seemingly compatible disciplines leads to more favorable cognitive, motivational and interpersonal outcomes for employees.
2. When employees recognize the need for changes in their organization, belief in mutual influence of seemingly incompatible disciplines leads to more favorable cognitive, motivational and interpersonal outcomes for employees.
