Episode notes

Dan Cevallos talks about his new book called up stream. It's a book on how to do some innovative thinking to prevent problems, rather than try to solve them after they become too big. He says that if you want to disrupt any industry, you've got to go back and reverse engineer an existing problem and solve it earlier. And so when you think ou ot what we're doing with business mane simple, we're sort of combining with and disrupting the university system.

We have two options when we’re faced with a problem. We can either resolve it and walk away or figure out why it’s happening in the first place. It’s tempting to just solve problems as they come up, but bestselling author and speaker Dan Heath thinks there’s a better way. On today’s episode, he’s sharing why it’s important to get to the root of a problem. If managing conflict at work has ever felt like a game of whack-a-mole, this episode will give you the tools you need to create lasting change instead.
