Culture
Ideation’s core strengths come from our people. Our people share the following set of attributes and aspirations that shape the atmosphere in which we work.
Problem-solving mindset
Ideation employees are a team of highly skilled and highly motivated problem solvers. We use design thinking to think broadly about what the real issues underlying a problem might be, and then we methodically ask “why?” questions to get at root causes. Using the process of ideation, we practice approaching challenges in imaginative ways, and we respond with innovative solutions.
“Being able to manifest ideas into solutions through invention or innovation was what I always wanted to do, and at Ideation we do just that. There is a thrill behind the discovery of a solution, and solving problems yields a better understanding of the world around me.”
—Xavier Maza, Ideation Systems Engineer
