It ensures better performance for problem solving, less frustration among <em>solvers<\/em> and less disappointment among <em>seekers<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Online problem solving is often thought of as a \u00ab\u00a0black-box process\u00a0\u00bb: the <em>seeker<\/em> gives the input, waits a few months and finally opens the box to discover the set of submitted solutions. This process implemented by nearly all Open Innovation platforms has various drawbacks, the main ones being:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>motivation decrease and risk-averse behavior of <em>solvers<\/em>,<\/li>\n<li>inefficiency to reach quality and relevant solutions,<\/li>\n<li>limited incentives for <em>seekers<\/em> to be fair and pay for all valuable solutions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We propose instead a three-step \u00ab\u00a0gray-box\u00a0\u00bb process for online problem solving. Based on our experience, we believe that this innovative process has a high potential to leverage expertise and intelligence through problem solving.<\/p>\n<p>The three-step process serves to filter experts in order to select the 2 to 5 most relevant ones out of the initial automatically generated list. Each step is a gate where experts that have accepted the invitation to solve a problem are asked to provide additional information.<\/p>\n<p>The present article is after the chapter we wrote in the book \u00ab\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.fr\/Guide-Open-Innovation-Crowdsourcing-Practitioners\/dp\/0749463074\/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1290462031&amp;sr=8-8\">A Guide to Open Innovation and Crowdsourcing: A Compendium of Best Practice, Advice and Case Studies from Leading Thinkers, Commentators and Practitioners<\/a>\u00ab\u00a0.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>D\u00e9sol\u00e9, cet article est seulement disponible en English.
