It has become something of a cliche, especially in the business world, where 'thinking outside the box' has become so hackeyed as to be rather meaningless. Various authors from the world of management consultancy claim to have introduced the phrase. "We must step back and see if the solutions to our problems lie outside the box." The 'box', with its implication of rigidity and squareness, symbolises constrained and unimaginative thinking. "Real thinking. The encouragement to look for solutions from outside our usual thinking patterns was championed in the UK by Edward De Bono, the psychologist and inventor, who coined the term Lateral Thinking in 1967 and went on to develop it as a method of structured creativity.
