we humans have come a long way toward improving our lifestyles, we
still have the same brains we had when we lived in caves. We are
very simple-minded creatures living in a very complex world, and by
working together we have accomplished things no individual could
ever hope to do.
When we come together to accomplish things as a group, we tap the
power of the team, but not without some difficulty. As we learned from
this adventure, as much as we would like to think we are created the same
and want to be the same, we are as diverse and unique as each snowflake
that falls. Finding a way to overcome the discord this causes and the
problem of a linear language in a nonlinear world, while accommodating
the simple human mind, has been a challenge for the ages. I believe
this challenge has been met with the RealityCharting process. While the
RealityCharting process is highly effective, it requires a new way of thinking
for most people. In over twenty years of teaching these methods, history
shows that students who do not continue to use what they learned often
revert back to old, ineffective habits. Changing our lifetime strategies of
storytelling and categorization is very difficult without help. Over the
years, we tried many ways to overcome this, but we had limited success
at institutionalizing better problem solving. RealityCharting® software
and RealityCharting Coach were created specifically to help solve this
problem by first providing a simple user-friendly charting tool and a fun,
fast learning guide in RealityCharting Coach.
Effective Solutions for Everyday Problems Every Time
Whether you are a professional incident investigator, a manager, or
a line worker, RealityCharting® will help you understand your problem
better than you have ever been able to understand it before. As a result
of this understanding, you are able to find more effective solutions and to
effectively communicate the value of those solutions to others. Because
the RealityCharting process does not allow storytelling, the normal
arguing and politics associated with problem solving are avoided. Clear
evidence-based causal relationships are very hard to argue with and the
RealityCharting process encourages diverse ideas and viewpoints such
that the best solutions can be found together, as a team. The bottom
line is this: Using RealityCharting® results in higher quality solutions in
less time.
