Staying F.O.C.U.S.E.D. - The power of peripheral vision in strategic thinking

Staying F.O.C.U.S.E.D!

Learn BETTER. Learn FASTER. Learn MORE than you are used to.

To learn more about the idea of the “ecosystem” that we built around the FOCUSED philosophy and its accompanying 7 colourful dice framework, please visit the FOCUSED homepage.

Most problems, issues, and challenges remain unsolved because we end up resorting to our past habitual attempts without being mindful of new ways of thinking and new ways of doing. This video will showcase an innovative new strategic thinking framework that is designed to make you think more deeply and peripherally about your organization's unsolved problems, and in the process, open up alternatives not contemplated before.

This video illustrates the F.O.C.U.S.E.D. Dice framework, to help open your thinking about complex issues. Each letter represents different key behaviors:

"F" - Bring Fresh Perspective

"O" - Think, feel and act like an Owner/ Manager

"C" - Show Connected-thinking

"U" - Have a Sense of Urgency

"S" - Show Team SPIRIT

"E" - Always Engage

"D" - Exercise Deliberate Practice
