Focused On Solutions
A powerful, practical and proven approach to positive change with people, teams, organizations, and businesses is to focus on solutions. With this approach of radical simplicity, you will sidestep the often fruitless search for the causes of problems and take the direct route forward and simply head straight for the solution. The concept is to focus on solutions, not problems; strengths, not weaknesses; and what’s going well, rather than what has gone wrong. This change in thinking leads to a positive and pragmatic way of making progress. Attend this conference and gather all the information needed to help you focus on the solutions!
