The Three Steps

  • Frame the Right Problem

    You always need to make sure you are solving the “right” problem, rather than just rushing in.

    In our trainings we teach a methodology for framing problems in multiple ways to find the true right problem(s). In our facilitation, we take you through the methodology with further customizations to your problems at hand.

  • Break Your Routines

    If you need new solutions, you need new behaviors, so break your routines.

    In our trainings we share the science and a framework for breaking routines, and give you practice breaking your routines in effective ways. In our facilitations we help you break routines in targeted ways that help you discover, decide, and design around a target problem.

  • Communicate the Value

    A good solution only gets implemented when you can communicate its value to others.

    In our trainings we teach you the method of Goal → Insight → Action to persuasively communicate the value and avoid solution aversions. In our facilitations, we give you practice scripting your pitches and identifying your target stakeholders’ solution aversions.
