Problem solving is a fundamental skill, yet many get it wrong. They approach problem solving like mathematics in their search for the right answer.
Insights from this discussion with Peter de Jager
There is no spoon
Your box might not be my box
There is no one right answer
The problem is not the situation
The problem you see might not be the real problem
The first step is to reassess the situation
Your solution might address the situation while not addressing my problem
The problem might be a matter of perception
Peter de Jager has been addressing problem solving and change for more than 40 years. He is an agent of change and champion of problem solving. And yes, his perspective has changed over those decades as he continues to change...
He has produced more than 100 webinars on the topic of change. You can find the library of his webinars here...
