}}Creative problem-solving is the mental process of searching for an original and previously unknown solution to a problem. To qualify, the solution must be novel and reached independently.[1] Creative solution typesThe process of creative problem-solving usually begins with defining the problem. This may lead to finding a simple non-creative solution, a textbook solution, or discovering prior solutions developed by other individuals. If the discovered solution is sufficient, the process may then be abandoned[2][3]. A creative solution will often have distinct characteristics that include using only existing components, or the problematic factor, as the basis for the solution. However, a change of perspective may in many cases be helpful.[4] A solution may also be considered creative if readily available components can be used to solve the problem within a short time limit[5] (factors typical to the solutions employed by the title character in the television series MacGyver). If a creative solution has broad application – that is, uses that go beyond the original intent –, it may be referred to as an innovative solution, or an innovation (some innovations may also be considered an invention). {{quote|text="All innovations [begin] as creative solutions, but not all creative solutions become innovations."[6] |author=Richard Fobes}}Techniques and toolsMany techniques and tools employed for creating effective solutions to a problem are described in creativity techniques and problem-solving articles.
