__Mikhail Rubin: Evolutionary systems science and the general laws of systems development. __
Initially, the focus of TRIZ was the study of the laws of technical system development. However, as TRIZ penetrated into other fields of activity, IT, business, etc., the need to study universal laws of systems development arose. TRIZ Master Mikhail Rubin has long been engaged in research related to the identification of such universal laws of systems development. In his report, he will talk about his research and show the direction of TRIZ development towards evolutionary systems science.
__Nikolai Shpakovsky. TRIZ and the application of the methodology to problem solving. A presentation on your questions. __
At the meeting, we plan to tell you about the specifics of solving an inventive problem using the example of one of the objects/processes (“Patrolling planes”), as this topic received the maximum number of votes. The meeting will be held in a dialogue format: participants will be able to propose their own variants and solutions.
Andrei Kuryan. Applying TRIZ to processes
Initially, TRIZ was applied to technical systems. As TRIZ occupied other fields, including management and business, the task of applying TRIZ tools to processes became relevant.
In the talk a model for finding inventive problems in business and management processes will be presented. The talk will be of interest to business analysts, business engineers, managers, and developers of management systems.
Olga Eckardt. Leadership as an exact science
Until Pythagoras published his theorem, solving quadratic equations was an art form. This is the case in almost all fields - moving from art to solutions and tools. We will be looking at what tools a leader has, why he/she needs these tools and how they work. Why a group is not a team, and how to form remote and distributed teams. Why a TRIZ leader and a TRIZ practitioner need leadership. What contradictions there are in a team and why create them.
Nataliya Rubina. How do you think. Inventive Thinking: Formation and Diagnosis
TRIZ is a scientific discipline that studies both the laws of technical system development and the patterns by which inventive thinking works and develops. We will discuss the hypothesis of forming a special type of thinking - inventive thinking. If ARIZ is taken as a benchmark of inventive thinking, a qualitative model of inventive thinking can be built and used to diagnose (compare) it with the real thinking of TRIZ seminar attendees. In addition, such a model can be used to evaluate the techniques proposed for inventive thinking development, project team building, etc.
New Year TRIZ competition, organized by Olga Eckardt and Igor Devojno
Sergei Kozlovsky. Fields of inquiry in the discovery industry
Sergei Kozlovsky will discuss how TRIZ approaches can be used in scientific research to plan and make scientific discoveries.
Olga Eckardt. A diversionary approach in non-technical areas. Examples of applications
Diversion Analysis was developed for technical systems where troubleshooting can be very difficult and rare. Extending this approach to non-technical areas involves modifying and adapting it to economic, social, pedagogical and other non-technical areas.
The principle of turning a problem into an opportunity to create such a situation using the resources of the system remains the same, but the typical problems and tasks look different.
The presentation will give examples from the field of project management in the creation of software products and business process support. In addition to theory, it will be shown how to apply this principle in practice.

Nikolai Shpakovsky. Transition from Problem Situation to Inventive Problem
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snu7Uj5i17A
Real inventive problems differ from learning problems in that we very rarely have a clear formulation of the condition. More often, it is an unclear problem situation which needs to be analysed and one or more problems formulated to be solved. We will get acquainted with some approaches to the analysis of the problem situation, and compare their advantages and disadvantages.
Igor Devoyno. Introduction to the laws of development of technical systems
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wgo3RmpckyQ
An overview of the laws of development of technical systems, their applications and the logic behind their use in TRIZ methodologies.

Igor Devoyno. New functions in technical and information systems
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZZfHPRj0Ng
Part 1. One of the development areas of technical systems is functionality building. It is important that the functions introduced are required by the users. There are several mechanisms for introducing new functions. One of such mechanisms will be discussed in this presentation. The methodology is applicable to both ‘hardware’ and ‘software’ systems.
Nikolai Shpakovsky. General Inventive Problem Solving Scheme
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUPp7QtM7qo
TRIZ tools are an important and effective means of solving problems. But the rational process of solving them is just as important. The problems solved with the help of TRIZ are quite diverse, but there are many similarities in the approaches to solving them. We will review the basic principles of constructing algorithms for inventive problem solving and compare their advantages and disadvantages.
