A relaxed, real-talk space for professionals who want to sharpen their thinking, grow their skills, and share what works.
We believe that better thinking leads to better doingโand whether you're early in your career or a seasoned leader, there's always room to level up.
This group is for anyone who wants to explore practical tools that improve how we communicate, make decisions, lead others, and manage ourselves.

Each session, we explore a specific framework, mental model, or thinking toolโsuch as the Minto Pyramid Principle, Decision Quality, SCQA, 5 Whys, or OKRs etc
Youโll learn:
-What the tool is
-Why it works
-How to apply it to real work and life situations
This will be followed by group discussions, practical exercises, or breakout conversations, sharing of resources/book recommendationsโbecause learning happens best when we exchange experiences and make connections, not just slides
We're always on the look-out for volunteers - drop me a note if you have an idea to share and would like to facilitate a session !

Hi, Iโm Zhijing. Iโve spent over 20 years in corporate roles spanning project management, project risk analysis, business consulting and data analytics. Along the way, Iโve learned how powerful clear thinking and structured tools can beโwhether you're solving a messy problem, giving feedback, or pitching an idea.
I'm started this group to create a space where professionals at any stage can learn practical frameworks, share real experiences, and grow togetherโwithout the fluff or hard sell.
Youโll also find me sharing ideas on LinkedIn <Zhijing Eu | LinkedIn> , YouTube < Zhijing Eu - YouTube >, and Medium < Zhijing Eu โ Medium >

See all- Frame It Before You Fix It : Why Good Problem Definition Matters !Bugis MRT exit A, Singapore
### Whatโs This About?
When problem solving - teams can fall into the trap of jumping straight into โfixโ mode - only to discover later that they solved the wrong problem. This is why good problem definition matters !
In this session, we show you why slowing things down at the start can help you speed up later.
***
๐ Location: Near Bugis MRT (Exact location to be shared upon sign-up confirmation)
๐ Date & Time: 7-9 PM Thu 9th October 2025
๐ซ Ticket Price: $15/pax (Or $10/pax if you bring a friend!) This small amount helps us cover venue rental costs & other background pre work we do to set up these sessions. Refer to How To Sign Up below and complete this form https://forms.gle/5t754T7UY2qLWAZd7***
### What Weโll Be Doing
Weโll explore simple, practical ways to clarify, explore, and reframe problems - using an accessible, structured framework as our guide and working through a case study to get practice.
Here's what to expect. You will be :
- Collaborating in fixed small groups from start to finish
- Applying each step to a shared fictional case study
- Iteratively building a shared understanding of the problem using tools like 5-Whys , Empathy Maps and How Might We questions
By the end, youโll have a before/after problem statement and a completed problem framing template that tells the story of your thinking.
