The Logic of Lateral Thinking

Personally I have built my career on looking from the outside in and exploring what’s possible in business, with a department or a single professional.  Helping those who are open to find new paths, new options or just validate their current course.

The key is that the information and solutions are in your head not mine.  All I do is twist and turn it laterally to test the logic and help you see if your conclusions are still the same or if something new arises.

So, in essence it’s being a solution consultant uses lateral and logical thinking to explore potential.

Lateral Framework for Tactical Solutions

When a strategic plan is in play, it’s the tactical solutions that are used to overcome challenges or find new paths to achieve the desired outcomes. When those challenges are unexpected or current outcomes didn’t achieve the desired results, the pressure rises and rapid and accurate decisions are required.

Therefore, when a change of direction is required, wouldn’t it be good to have access to a methodology that helps you to quickly look at your situation from the outside to validate your path or potentially reveal a better one?

What if you could further explore the tactical in context with the strategic through a different lense, in order to achieve the best possible outcome.

The Lateral Framework for Tactical Solutions is a methodology I have used for many years that is now formulated into a repeatable structure. The Framework uses an interactive process to further explore potential options from many angles (past, present and future) to help you discover what it important to you and explore if anything is missing.
