行動方針:

The intention was to create a very strong kind of glue to develop various applications within the company 3M. 博士. Spence Silver, a 3M researcher, developed a glue based on very small ‘sticky balls’ believing that this technique would result in a glue with strong cohesive properties.

成果:

Since only a small part of each ‘sticky ball’ actually makes contact with the flat surface to which it is being ‘glued’, it resulted in a layer, that although it stuck well, it was also easily removed. Dr Spence was disappointed – the new glue performed worse that 3M’s existing glues and 3M terminated the research program into this technology.

課程:

The ‘Eureka moment’ came 4 years later when Art Fry, a college of Dr. Spence, who was frustrated by the bookmarks that kept falling out of his hymn book, hit on the idea of using Dr. Spence’s glue technology to make a reliable bookmark. The idea for the Post-it was born. 係 1981, one year after the introduction Post-it® Notes, the product was chosen as Outstanding New Product. Since then, various other products have since been added to the Post-it range.

進一步:
Many ‘brilliant failures’ are born along the lines of the Post-it principle. 占發明家枰正在研究一個問題,並且透過運氣-抑或更好嘅話係偶然性-搵到咗另一個問題嘅解決方案. 對於正在處理初始問題的人, and who is confronted with unexpected results, 它經常-但並非成日 – 徜徉好難徜徉睇到佢哋工作結果嘅直接應用-即. 以查看其“失敗”中嘅價值. In many cases, as was for the Post-it, it takes another to extract the ‘value’ out of the ‘unexpected’ results. They are looking for a solution for a different problem, and can examine the ‘unexpected’ results from a completely different perspective.
