Where People, Process & Proficiency Meet

People

Know how you think. Know how your team thinks.

Every person brings a unique perspective to solving problems. Some love asking questions, others want to jump right into action. Understanding this diversity of problem-solving preferences is essential for truly effective collaboration, innovation, and lasting impact. This is where FourSight, a research-based cognitive assessment, becomes a game changer. It reveals an individual’s preferred thinking style in problem solving. When we understand how we naturally approach resolving, we communicate better, make faster progress, and reduce unnecessary conflict. We can become much more efficient when problem solving in groups. Rather than wrestling with each other, we begin to wrestle with the real problem. Cognitive diversity isn’t a challenge. It’s a strength. By recognizing and respecting different preferences for problem solving and decision-making, we create inclusive environments where every voice matters, and where every contribution moves us closer to powerful solutions.

Process

imagination for innovation

Solving today’s problems requires processes for crafting different solutions. That's why creativity is the most in demand human skill of our time. Creative Problem Solving (CPS) is a practical, flexible framework for navigating complexity with clarity. Rooted in decades of research, CPS process guides individuals and teams through complex problem solving. This isn’t a theoretical method. It’s deeply human and adaptable to any industry or setting. From workshops and classrooms to executive coaching, CPS equips people with the confidence to ask better questions, generate more effective ideas, and follow through with purpose. The goal isn’t just to be creative. It's to leverage human superpower.

Proficiency

unlock innovation through creativity

Innovation thrives when people and processes work together, powered by the uniquely human superpower of creativity. Proficiency in innovation means bridging natural preference with intentional creative methods. It’s the ability to move seamlessly between understanding people as problem solvers and structurally applying imaginative thinking to real-world challenges.

This is where training, workshops, and leadership development come in. Preparing teams for the unforeseen is a skillset to be learned. Whether through a single workshop or a full Creative Problem Solving program, business leaders not only think differently, they lead differently. And when leaders shift, so do their teams.

Imagine an organization where people do their best work, feel deeply connected to their purpose, and contribute meaningfully to a shared vision. That’s what a culture of innovation makes possible.

Developing proficiency in innovation means creating a professional environment where individual problem-solving styles align with collaborative processes, transforming the way people think, work, and lead.

Putting Creativity at the Center of Complex Problem Solving

Creativity isn’t just about ideas — it’s a mindset, a method, and a skillset

In today’s fast-changing world, problem-solving requires more than technical expertise — it demands adaptability, originality, and purpose. Creativity isn’t just a skill for artists or innovators. It’s a mindset and process that helps people see challenges from new angles, generate fresh ideas, and develop solutions that are meaningful and sustainable. When creativity is placed at the heart of how we lead, teach, and collaborate, complex challenges become opportunities for real transformation. Through my work, I guide individuals, teams, and organizations to use structured creativity to navigate uncertainty. I use evidence-based methods like the Creative Problem Solving (CPS) process, which provides a clear framework — Clarify, Ideate, Develop, and Implement — to move from confusion to clarity, and from intention to impact. Paired with tools like FourSight, which reveals how people naturally approach problems, we’re able to build teams that work better together, tapping into cognitive diversity instead of struggling against it.
