The Weight of a Problem: How Shifting to Solution Mode Leads to More Successful Events
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, your host Amy Milne gets real with a personal story; a real life experience about the virtues of perseverance and problem-solving and how it relates to all of us as non-profit event professionals. We've all been in a situation before (likely more than once!) where everyone only seems to be focused on the problem, and there's no solution in sight. Events are fraught with potential problems, so this episode is a great reminder to shift our mindset to solution mode if we want to be successful. Amy shares a one-of-a-kind story about one million pennies (actually a few more than that!) that is sure to have you scratching your head and praying that you're never faced with this problem in your lifetime. She ties everything together at the end with some of her top learnings and takeaways from this experience, you don't want to miss it!
“It's never about the problem, it is only about the solution.” - Amy Milne
