It’s a lot to handle, but it doesn’t have to be so overwhelming. That’s why John Vetan and I are kicking off the year with a webinar focused on Problem Framing—a framework that helps you: ✔️ Solve the right problems (not just symptoms). ✔️ Align stakeholders and get everyone on the same page. ✔️ Build solutions that deliver real impact. 💡 What’s on the agenda? 1️⃣ How to avoid common pitfalls like misaligned priorities and endless debates. 2️⃣ The three Problem Framing phases: → Spotting opportunities → Fact-finding & discovery → Running a Problem Framing workshop 🚀 Bonus: We’ll also share our Strategic Opportunity Brief, a tool we use to align teams and drive focus on high-priority challenges. 👉 Save your spot here!
