CREATIVE SOLUTIONS TO SOLVE PROBLEMS

Wayne Dyer once said, “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”

Inside of you is the ability to WORK SMART in your creativity to address many of the challenges people face in their professional or even personal lives. How is it one conflict can stop a person in their tracks, yet the same conflict becomes an inspirational spark to someone else? The difference is in their thinking.

As much as I’ve shared the principle that “it’s very rarely the platform, it’s almost always the strategy,” it’s time we talk about mindset. My goal is to put specific action steps in your hands so you take action when things may seem stacked against you. This chapter will help you change your mindset.

Think of a current problem or challenge you may be facing. Is it business? Is it personal? For now, just label the issue. Before we explore the conflict in depth, simply acknowledge the block that might currently be there.

Start with the end in mind. Assume you’ve already resolved the issue and you’re out there in this future result. At the end of this journey, what will you have learned? What skills will now be a part of you? What kind of growth will you have experienced?

Mentally zoom out the visual perspective of this scene, as if you could observe it all from start to finish. Realize there are so many different paths to get from the starting point to the end. Just as you could imagine floating out of this experience and observing it from a distance, you can imagine many more creative ways to resolve this conflict.

Here are some stories to illustrate the idea of “Creative Solutions to Dissolve Problems.”

I speak to businesses and organizations about turning goals into actionable steps to create desired outcomes. Do you need your staff asking for referrals more consistently? Are there divisions in your company that are not yet working together as they should? Are there leadership themes that need reinforcement?

When I’m speaking with the executive team in advance of an event, I’m looking for the key solution-based statement that will become the theme of the presentation. If we don’t yet have the specific conflict that needs to be resolved, the intended message will become diluted and unrealized.

At first, the response is too often generic and nonspecific. “We want our team to be motivated!” they request. I have to ask, “For what result?” You can throw all the darts you want, but, without the dartboard, they’re not going to stick.

These business events often have a message to the staff that needs reinforcement. With the threat of downsizing, it’s necessary to communicate that their jobs are safe and to highlight the business methods to move forward: “The robots are coming. Here’s how we can better work together as a team to keep the human-to-human connection.” They have a team of employees that need to be motivated to perform as leaders.
