There are two classes of problems that people get stuck on all the time, and unless they reframe the way they think about the problem, they will stay stuck forever. A gravity problem is a problem. You can't change gravity. And so woedn't you accept that gravity problem as just not a problem? If it's not actionable, it's not a problem. It's a circumstance. All you can do wi is accept it. But anchre problems are where you imbed the answer in your question. How do i get to promotion? Ther's a big company with everybody stuck between level seven and eight. We don't need any more eights.
Dave Evans is a Lecturer in the Product Design Program at Stanford, Management Consultant, and co-founder of iconic gaming company, Electronic Arts. Having participated in forming the corporate cultures at Apple and EA, Dave decided his best work was in helping organizations build creative environments where people could do great work and love doing it. And, maybe, along the way, answer the question, "what should I do with my life?" Helping people get traction on that question finally took Dave to Cal and Stanford and continues to be his life’s work. Bill Burnett is Executive Director of the Design Program at Stanford. He got his BS and MS in Product Design at Stanford and has worked on a wide variety of projects ranging from award-winning Apple PowerBooks to the original Hasbro Star Wars action figures. Together, they wrote New York Times bestselling book, Designing Your Life, and the follow-up, Designing Your Work Life (https://amzn.to/3hflUvz), train coaches and run workshops for individuals and organizations.
