Since 1999, he has been consulting on the “TRIZ” (Theory of Inventive Problem Solving) methodology. He has led the evolution of TRIZ thinking and application into non-traditional areas such as organizational and management issues, as well as into unique technical areas such as human factors and consumer product design. He has also pioneered the combination of TRIZ with other creativity techniques such as CPS and Edward DeBono’s tools and teaches a course at the University of South Florida on industrial creativity and innovation techniques. He also teaches inventive problem solving for both the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and the American Institute of Chemical Engineers His clients include BP/Amoco, S.C. Johnson, Dow Chemical, GAF Roofing, National Starch, Mobil Chemical, Air Products, Bank of Montreal, Siemens (both in the U.S. and in Mexico), the U.S. Navy, Lockheed Marti and M&M Mars. He has taught TRIZ courses for the Altshuller TRIZ Institute, the European TRIZ Association, the American Creativity Association and the World Future Society. He is a certified TRIZ specialist and is also a certified DeBono (Six Hats™ and Lateral Thinking™) user and certified MBTI™ and Kirton KAI™ trainer.
Ellen's client work, books, and articles are aimed at making it easy for people to learn TRIZ and to incorporate new thinking methods into their organizations. Clients include the Global 500 - Dow Chemical, Hewlett-Packard, 3M and others - and entrepreneurial companies with 3-50 employees.
Mr. Royzen has been applying TRIZ to new product development, quality improvement, cost reduction, and inventive problem solving since 1980. He has been teaching TRIZ since 1984. As the manager of training at The Scientific and Technological Center, Kishinev, former Soviet Union, he conducted many TRIZ workshops and taught TRIZ to nearly 1000 engineers and scientists. Mr. Royzen has applied TRIZ to numerous projects in diverse industries for some of the largest companies in the former Soviet Union. Since 1992, he has led workshops and/or provided consultation at numerous organizations, including Boeing, Eastman Kodak, Ford Motor Company, Hewlett-Packard, Howmet Corporation, Illinois Tool Works, Kimberly-Clark, Lexmark International Inc., LG Electronics, Lucent Technologies Inc., NASA, Paccar, Philips Semiconductors Hamburg, Samsung, Thiokol Corporation, Western Digital Corporation, Weyerhaeuser Company, and Xerox. He has published articles on creative problem solving and holds 26 patents. Since 2000, he has taught more than 500 engineers at Boeing alone. Using TRIZ, course participants have saved for the company millions of dollars. TRIZ solutions developed in class applied to the 767 Tanker Transport Project were critical in winning eight orders worth $1,500 million from the governments of Italy and Japan.
