Today, I'm going to teach you a framework for Solving Problems. One of my favorite leadership questions is, "What problem are we trying to Solve?" Life is full of problems and nothing important gets done until some ambitious person gets a bit fed up and says… "I'm going to fix that." This framework is tried and true and can be applied to any area of your business. Listen, learn, and implement!
