Chapter 11 address how contributions are combined in different ways when designing CI. One approach utilize many different perspectives on the same work, like in collective work on the same Wikipedia article. Multidisciplinary innovation teams also include a diversity of perspectives in creative problem solving. Second, contributions can be combined under the assumption that the golden middle way is the best solution. One example is the identification of a quantitative middle point, such as an average, that provide the most accurate solution if contributions are diverse. Another strategy is to find the middle way by developing a balanced representation of all sides like in collective argument mapping. In addition, the middle way can identify commonalities, like the online environment vTaiwan that let the crowd find consensual statements in political conflicts. A third approach scales up the number of contributions in the search for an unexpected solution. Many breakthrough ideas happen at the outskirts of a field. Online innovation contests aim to bring in creative outsiders or unknown others by inviting anyone to join. Furthermore, most of the contributions in CI-projects build on a modularization strategy that split a complex challenge into many smaller subtasks.
