Approach of the Team Management Study in Creative Problem Solving : Considering the Dynamic Constraint Relaxation Theory(<Special Issue>Management of People and Team)

Abstract

Sometimes, we face difficulties that impede the progress of projects. Therefore, finding creative solutions to problems is one of the most important themes team management. One such method is the "Dynamic Constraint Relaxation Theory" in cognitive science. The theory states that constraints in solving problems are dynamically updated while the problem solving process is hampered by personal cognitive restriction. This study examines how problems are creatively solved using an agent-based simulation and the "Dynamic Constraint Relaxation Theory". Consequently, the study confirms that the number of problem solving ideas changes with the attitude of the member's toward proposals from other members. I present an approach of creative problem solving through a team management study.
