Why Wicked Problems? These are complex, tricky, incorrigible problems with many layers. They are socially influenced and have social impact. They’re also the highly important work that organizations are well-positioned and even mandated to run after. But they need a different approach than the usual short term process goal or individual-parts focus.
Teams and leaders are charged with leading change and accomplishing the goals of the organization. Yet, 60% – 70% of the time, team aims fail to be met, 50% of leaders report burnout, and 80% of CEOs say their organizations don’t manage change well. With those challenges, how are you going to bring order out of chaos?
