“Tutta la vita consiste nel risolvere problemi.”Karl Popper
Il Problem Solving è l’arte di risolvere problemi apparentemente non risolvibili o difficili da risolvere.
La storia dell’uomo è costellata di eroi “problem solver” e di soluzioni che hanno permesso la nostra evoluzione. Il Problem Solving, con le sue metodologie e i suoi protocolli apparentemente “bizzarri” ci insegna a trovare soluzioni mai pensate prima e a diventare abili nell’affrontare le problematiche che spesso noi stessi abbiamo generato e/o alimentato.
Il Problem Solving è un’abilità sempre più richiesta e in tutti i campi delle attività umane. Conoscerne le tecniche, i protocolli, le strategie e i vari orientamenti, ci permette di diventare abili problem solver e creativi innovatori.
Spesso il Problem Solving viene banalizzato nel semplice “pensa ad una soluzione”. Non è così. Anzi, spesso questo atteggiamento aumenta la frustrazione e alimenta l’incapacità a trovare soluzioni efficaci. Capita di frequente che il voler risolvere un problema, senza strumenti pratici e concreti, lo alimenta, peggiorando la situazione e riducendo le possibilità e le capacità di soluzione: l’insidiosa trappola della Tentata Soluzione.
Col nostro corso scoprirai che esistono protocolli rigorosi e tecniche contro-intuitive che permettono di accedere a risorse che consentono di avere nuovi punti di vista e nuove soluzioni, innovative, efficaci, efficienti ed eleganti.
Non basta voler risolvere, tantomeno dire di voler risolvere, ma serve una metodologia pratica, efficace, scientifica, sperimentata e comprovata. Scopriremo i modelli Problem oriented, quelli Solution oriented e quelli Action oriented, integrati in una metodologia sperimentata da decenni.
Questo è il PROBLEM SOLVING: non si parla di soluzioni, ma si agiscono soluzioni!
Il corso si concentrerà sul Problem Solving applicato al COACHING, come strumento di superamento dei “blocchi di performance”, in ambito professionale, sportivo e personale.
“Ci troviamo continuamente di fronte a una serie di grandi opportunità brillantemente travestite da problemi insolubili.”J. W. Gardner

Holiday Gift Collective brings together seven East Bay female artisans in Lafayette, CA
San Francisco, CA – With a global pandemic and wave of fires, many small businesses have shuttered under the conditions, while others have united in finding new ways to sustain themselves and support their local communities through their crafts.
Contra Costa County recently moved into Tier 2, allowing for the return of indoor retail shopping under state guidelines. The artisans and women behind Holiday Gift Collective are thrilled at the opportunity to safely showcase their goods and boost their local economy just in time for the holidays.
The idea for Holiday Gift Collective was born from the shared values of each of the participating artisans as well as from the #shoplocal movement which encourages people to invest in their communities with the goal of strengthening the economy. Holiday Gift Collective is a union in support of community and equality, and will offer home goods, jewelry, gourmet foods, and more.
In addition to continuing to pave the path for aspiring female entrepreneurs, Holiday Gift Collective hopes to encourage the community to work together in the fight against climate change. Brands such as Planet Renu, SIP, and Hofssi Chocolates will be presenting a variety of eco-friendly and ethically sourced products. Joining the list of green businesses will be Hollie's Homegrown, a local organic herb farm on a mission to create the highest quality herbal food and body products. All together, they will provide Holiday Gift Collective customers with unique and special gift options that reduce our carbon-footprint.
To learn more about the women behind Holiday Gift Collective, visit their sites: Anne Morrison Rabe Photography, Annie Chrietzberg, Hofssi Chocolates, Hollie’s Homegrown, Manjusha Jewels, Planet Renu, and SIP (Seriously Imbibed Products).
Located at 3539 Plaza Way, Lafayette, CA, the pop-up will run Sunday, Nov. 1 through the end of the holiday season from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Local guest artisans will be featured on a rotating basis.
