Virtual Program - June 17, 2025 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM Central

Are you stuck trying to solve a problem that just keeps circling back?
Or are you staring down a challenge that feels big but strangely hard to define?

This 90-minute session will sharpen your Strategic Framing and Problem Analysis skills. You'll learn how to cut through surface symptoms, reframe the real problem, and uncover hidden opportunities that could change everything.

Enter with a real challenge you're working through — something messy, stalled, or unclear.
You’ll leave with sharper insights, a stronger action plan, and tools you can use immediately to rethink how you and your teams approach problems.

What You'll Bring:

  • A current challenge that feels stuck or misaligned.

  • An issue you’ve been solving around but not solving through.

What You'll Leave With:

  • A sharper, reframed definition of a real-world challenge you're facing

  • A set of powerful strategic questions you can use to rethink problems and uncover deeper insights

  • A smarter, targeted next move connected to bigger goals and real impact

  • A simple, focused action plan ready to apply immediately at work

  • Practical tools to strengthen your ability to think strategically instead of reacting under pressure

This session is part of the Strategic Playground Thinking Sprints series — a modular program designed to strengthen core strategic thinking skills through focused, hands-on challenges. Each Sprint stands alone, so you can join any session without completing previous modules. Whether you attend one or many, every Sprint builds sharper thinking, stronger action plans, and real-world strategic momentum.
