What I Do

I help you solve problems by asking thought-provoking questions to explore the problem. My process is different with each client, but what's consistent is that I provide a non-judgmental sounding board for you to test ideas and a new pair of eyes to help you see different perspectives. Through our joint work together, we identify where you need to go and how we're gonna get there.

One exercise I like to do to get a client thinking is to ask a question from Jack Foster's How to Get Ideas. Take a second to give your answer and then click to see mine.

What's half of thirteen?

 
 
 
 

There are so many answers to such a simple question. All of them are right, but when faced with a challenge, we tend to revert to our default thinking, our 6.5 and our 6 1/2. Part of what we'll do together is explore solutions beyond our initial few ideas. Together, we'll find the 1 and 3 and the half a baker's dozen.
