AmCham Croatia live with Harvard Business Review Press 23.4.
The first AmCham Croatia Live with Harvard Business Review Press program took place on April 23, 2020, with Thomas Wedell-Wedellsborg, author: What's Your Problem?
What’s Your Problem?
To Solve Your Toughest Problems, Change the Problems You Solve
The coronavirus has turned everyone into problem-solvers, at work and at home. But are you and your people solving the right problems? According to Thomas Wedell-Wedellsborg, author of the just-published book “What’s Your Problem?” from Harvard Business Review Press, 85% of companies say their people too often jump into solution mode. As a consequence, we waste our much-needed energy on the wrong things.
The answer is reframing. In his seminal book, Thomas shares a method for solving the right problems that he has honed through his work with clients such as Cisco, Microsoft, Citigroup, and the Wall Street Journal. Crucially, the method can be used quickly – an imperative for the present moment, as nobody has time to waste. Learn a new way of thinking that just might save your business – or as former Google CEO Eric Schmidt put it, “If you want the superpower of solving better problems, read this book.”
