In 1930, Ruth and Kenneth Wakefield purchased a tourist lodge in Whitman, Massachusetts, and opened the Toll House Inn. Ruth, the cook for their new restaurant, was trying to make chocolate chip cookies but was in a hurry. She improvised by breaking apart a Nestlé chocolate bar and tossing it in. She didn’t melt the pieces as she normally did, thinking they would melt on their own. But they didn’t. They held their shape. What started as a simple mistake became a revolutionary culinary invention. This story is just one example of many products and inventions, from penicillin to the pacemaker, that resulted from fortunate accidents. Should we wait for good fortune to reveal a new latent need we were previously unaware of? Is this the best approach for planning our new product pipeline development? You’ll probably agree that unfortunately, we can't rely on serendipity alone. While we can't provide the recipe for Ruth's chocolate chip cookies, we can encourage you to apply SIT's recipes to create virtual accidents. By applying the SIT methodology, we can intentionally create imaginary malfunctions and explore their consequences. Removing an essential component of your product or creating another copy of a component are just two recipes for discovering new ideas. What’s the most surprising innovation you’ve come across that started as an accident? #NationalChocolateChipDay #Innovation #SITUK #SystematicInventiveThinking #LuckyAccident #CreativeThinking

In a dimly lit space filled with casks, a moment of reflection: Our client holds a precious sample from his cask—deep ruby-red whisky, matured over years of patience and care. But here’s the thing: this bottle is more than just liquid. 🏰 It’s history. 🥃 It’s tradition. 💫 It’s legacy. At Whisky Solutions, we know that investing in a cask isn’t just about financial returns. It’s about creating something that endures, something that future generations will hold dear. This small bottle? It’s the culmination of time, craftsmanship, and passion.
