Our Method - HUMINT Solutions

Discover what we do and why it works.

TINO is a non-technologigal innovation methodology. It helps you to find the missing perspectives. Not by asking people to think outside the box, but by finding people who are already outside the box. In order to explain where we can find these ‘already outside the box people’, we need to have a look at knowledge in general. We claim that every person has three types of knowledge: recognized knowledge, semi-recognized knowledge and unrecognized knowledge.

Whereas people are aware of having valuable knowledge, or perspectives, in the first two knowledge domains, they and their environment are not aware of the unrecognized knowledge they have. As a result this knowledge will not be pushed (shared) and remains unused. In order to identify and collect unrecognized knowledge, and integrate these valuable perspectives into innovative solutions, we need a methodology. That methodology is TINO: Think Intelligence Network Owner.

TINO works because it:

Uses excisting resources
Finds unrecognized knowledge...
...with the lowest level of conflict of interest
Gives recognition to people

Get started!

Improve efficiency and effectivity
People with unrecognized knowledge are without any conflict of interest with the question at hand. This absence of conflict of interest speeds up the innovation and problem-solving process, and increases the effectivity of the developed solutions/strategy.

Optimize sustainability
As most of the time the needed missing perspectives already exist, TINO optimizes the level of sustainability because it uses the full potential of the available human-based knowledge domain.

Increase worker engagement and citizen participation
Because the use of these perspectives gives the people involved recognition, TINO automatically stimulates positive engagement and authentic word of mouth about your organization or product.

"Stop trying to think outside the box. Other people already do that for you. TINO helps you to find them."
