Why Think Wrong.
Orthodox problem-solving techniques are born of the belief in Best Practices.
And, Best Practices are useful when the problem is clear and the solution is well known.
But, those practices might be deadly when the true nature of the problem is unclear and the solutions are unknown.
To close the gap between problem and solution we must use Think Wrong Practices that:
- Break our problem solving orthodoxies.
- Increase the number of people solving.
- Increase the speed with which we are solving.
- And increase the ingenuity of those solutions.
We deliver Think Wrong Practices through an intense, hands-on session designed to teach your people how to use them to produce a portfolio of ingenious solutions that matter to you and your organization.
We call that session a Blitz.
We’ve used our Think Wrong Practices to help Starbucks Creative Services become wrong thinking strategists,
SodaStream’s CEO take on Big Soda, Not for Sale convene leaders to invent a slavery-ending beverage, and The Butler Bros Agency engage youth to create menthol-fighting products.
We’ve helped many others too.
