"Agile methods to reduce complex challenges and to increase innovation in battery development"
Truly innovative solutions are often the result of breaking away from conventional thinking patterns to be able to think out-of-the-box. This approach enables the generation of unconventional ideas and exploration of new procedures that are not necessarily obvious. Creativity and open-minded thinking are key to success in this concept as well as using new technologies, processes and agile methods to stay flexible and to adapt quickly to new requirements in a constantly changing world.
