Dear TRIZ Colleagues and WTSP Members   

Hello, how are you?

Dear TRIZ Colleagues and WTSP Members

   Toru Nakagawa (OGU, WTSP Project Leader), 

I posted a new article about WTSP on LinkedIn yesterday.

   My LinkedIn Profile is: linkedin.com/in/toru-nakagawa-b2453216

  My new article is:
     "World WTSP Catalogs Accept Diversity of Websites
       To Get Overall Views of TRIZ from Multiple Perspectives"

     Our Catalogs have a general policy to accept the Diversities in TRIZ websites:
      Diversity of approaches/submethods of TRIZ
         (reflecting Evolution of TRIZ),
      Diversity of types/roles of websites
         (reflecting various activities of TRIZ), and
      Diversity of countries and languages of websites
         (reflecting the proliferation of TRIZ).

      This policy contributes to collecting a full range of
      TRIZ-related websites for making overall views of TRIZ,
      and enhancing the Usefulness of the World WTSP Catalogs.

      Its Top Figure (.gif) and its full text in. PDFs are attached here.

     This article is now posted on the WTSP website (inside "TRIZ Home page in Japan").

    Please contribute Site Descriptions (by site owners) and
     Manuscripts of Country Part of World WTSP Catalogs (by
     WTSP Team of each country).

    Let's work Together! Connected !!

     Best wishes,

     Toru

(A2) Information/discussion of WTSP Activities in Korea

    Subject: [WTSP] Letter (33C-3XX) XXCountry Part of World WTSP Catalogs -- Call for Contributions --Ref. WTSP Activities in Korea 

    Date: 16-17 Mar 2023

    From: Toru Nakagawa 

    Dear TRIZ colleagues in XXCountry,  XXXX-1, XXXX-2, ... XXXX-n 

          Mar. 16-17, 2023  Toru Nakagawa (OGU, Leader of WTSP)

    Hello, how are you?  How is the WTSP activity coming in your country?

    On Feb. 19, I got a report of WTSP Activites in Korea from Min-Gyu Lee and replied next day.

      I posted these communications on our WTSP Forum page of "TRIZ Home Page in Japan" on Mar. 14.

https://www.osaka-gu.ac.jp/php/nakagawa/TRIZ/eTRIZ/eWTSP/eWTSP-B7-News2023/eWTSP-Forum2023A.html#WTSP-Korea-2302

      The communications discuss some serious/common issues of TRIZ-related information.

      So I posted a brief article on LinkedIn (especially in the TRIZ and Innovation Group) on Mar. 15.

https://www.linkedin.com/posts/toru-nakagawa-b2453216_activity-7041827351147540480-TmfB?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop

      Please look at its Top Figure first in .gif, which is attached here, and then the text in .pdf, which is attached here also.

    In short, Min-Gyu Lee has compiled Korea Part of World WTSP TRIZ Catalogs, and his team finds "there are NOT so many great TRIZ sites in Korea".

      This is strange and contradictory to the fact that Korea achieved great success in its businesses/economy with the active introduction of TRIZ.

      He describes various background situations which cause such unexpected results of TRIZ websites.

      He finally remarks that "we (the Korean TRIZ society) do not share TRIZ-related information enough, and we are losing

        some of the old but good information and people."

      The whole situations are more or less the same in many countries in the world, I am afraid.

      Why? and What to do? -- We have to consider it seriously. I replied:

         " ... In spite of such situations, industry management sometimes gives talks, researchers present/publish

           their work in conferences/journals, and consultants show case studies.

           So we should collect the websites that contain such information (in the WTSP Catalogs)."

       I wish you all, TRIZ leaders/colleagues/users, to understand the value of the World WTSP Catalogs,

           to read/use the WTSP Catalogs, and to contribute/work for making the World WTSP Catalogs more "Useful and Attractive".

     Looking forward to hearing from you about your thoughts and recent WTSP (and other TRIZ-related) activities in your country

       (and in relation to your website).

      Please contribute a manuscript of your country part of World WTSP Catalogs and an introduction of your own website.

    Best wishes,

    Toru

-----------------------------------

(B) Please form a WTSP Team of USA, and update and enhance the current USA Part of World WTSP Catalogs of TRIZ Sites.

     I made the current version of the USA Part and posted it on the "TRIZ Home Page in Japan" in Jul. 2019.

     On the web page, the process of my survey and site description, and further steps to go are written.

     Please follow the instructions in (A1) with reference to many samples in the current active World WTSP Catalogs.

     Here are some specific suggestions for you in the USA:

     (a) First, look at the current state of USA Part (or Case TN2F), and check if your own website and some more sites

           you would recommend are listed and introduced properly. You should better compare them with other sites in

           other countries where many sites are listed well and the site introductions are written carefully.

      (b) Get several (up to 20?) volunteers who find the weak points of the current WTSP Catalogs and are willing

            to work to improve the WTSP Catalogs.

      (c) Assign or volunteer to be the coordinators of such people. Multiple coordinators (i.e., WTSP Country Editors of USA) may be necessary, I suppose.

          Anyone who becomes a WTSP Country Editor should submit the WTSP Membership Application Form to the WTSP Project Leader (TN).

      (d) Any recommendor or site owner may send brief introductions of the site(s) to the WTSP Team.

          Site owners should write the introduction of his/her own site in the WTSP Standard Form (1 page in A4).

            Please learn various codes for categorization and describe the introduction faithfully and attractively.

       (e) Evaluation of individual sites is a delicate job.

             Please learn the WTSP Evaluation Criteria and compare the site with various other sites in the WTSP Catalogs.

           If a site owner wants to have the site evaluated high, he/she should write the site introduction properly.

             A close description of the site in the additional free-format style may be a good idea.

       (f) Due date:

             Revised Manuscript of the USA Part of World WTSP Catalogs of TRIZ Sites:  Apr. 16, 2023 Site descriptions of individual sites:  Jun. 10, 2023

    For your reference, we have been sending the [WTSP] Letters to the following people in the USA.

       Isak Bukhman            

       Ellen Domb

       Victor Fey
