2A107: Dialogues on 4 Types of Problem Solving

This session will be a facilitated discussion about the four types of problem-solving, from reactive troubleshooting to creative innovation, and how they map to the Cynefin framework and its respective domains. It will revolve around the synthesis of lean thinking and its tools for problem-solving integrated through the lens of complexity. This session takes inspiration from the book written by Art Smalley, and Dave Snowden's Cynefin framework.

The session will be 90 minutes long and be structured similar to the Thinking Dialogues format used in the Systems & Complexity Thinking meetup group. Srikanth will introduce the topic, followed by breakout groups to discussion prompts and questions designed to stimulate conversation. We will then synthesize the findings from the breakouts as a group before introducing the next idea.
