Insightful Problem-Solving Either for individuals or businesses, problem-solving is one of the most crucial skills to keep things moving forward and achieve the well-planned goals. The matter of fact is that the more complex the situation is, the more different approaches and role gaming is needed to reach for insightful understanding and effective problem-solving. In today’s digital dynamic environment with “VUCA” new normal, how to spot insightful problem-solvers and advocate a solution-driven culture for accelerating collective progress?

Many problems do exist because they are either ill-defined or the concept cannot be adequately captured contextually. Further, there’s the problem that the same word means different things to different people because they carry different emotional baggage or have the cognitive difference. So, what’re the logical scenarios for problems diagnosing and solving? And how to leverage Systems Thinking in problem-solving?

On-observation, how critical is it, and what’re the disciplines, stages, tools or frameworks to help you OBSERVE insight-fully? If you have decision platforms; tactics and checklists for acts; model systems for orientation. What if any of them are the support tools you use in observation, and what practices have you found useful in developing that skill?
