We are recruiting members for the theme Building Problem-Solving Muscles. It has been rebooted after quite a long break. We would appreciate your interest.
Theme introduction
This theme focuses on problem solving. In both everyday life and work, problems arrive without rest and must keep being solved. Some are big and some are small, but in the end they cannot be avoided. Over the course of four months, we look at how the world's top rocket scientists think, how to discover and solve root problems, how to apply strategic thinking in reality, and how to move beyond binary thinking.
