The Effects Database is a useful tool for applying the principles of TRIZ quickly and easily to problems and idea generation. It has been created as a free service by Oxford Creativity, who are experts in using and training people in TRIZ techniques. It can be found at: http://wbam2244.dns-systems.net//EDB_Welcome.php Guidance on how to use the tool can be found here: https://www.triz.co.uk/how/triz-effects-database.
The database is based on analysis of patents and therefore is inherently technical in nature. However, many of the things that we experience in organisations and in the non-technical world in general have parallel relationships to those described in technology, and it does not require a massive leap to see how many of the functions, parameters, effects and solutions used in the effects database have analogous counterparts in our own environment.
