Recommendation

The COVID-19 pandemic proved to be a true black swan event. No one saw it coming and initially, no one knew what to do about it. It devastated the globe, shut down economic activity, and caused the deaths of more than seven million people worldwide. MYPRISM’s six authors –  Maribel Aleman, Douglas Choo, John Lazar, Beth Masterman, Fernando Morais, and Rolf Pfeiffer, all Fellows of the Institute of Coaching (IOC) at McLean, a Harvard Medical School Affiliate – banded together during the lockdown to develop MYPRISM, a new approach to solving problems. The authors explain how the system works and how you can apply it to attack a problem the way a prism treats light: by breaking it into its component parts and addressing them methodically.

Kauffman hoped to spur their most imaginative new thinking about the pandemic and, later, about other major emergencies and potential problems.

Co-authors and IOC Fellows Maribel Aleman, Douglas Choo, John Lazar, Beth Masterman, Fernando Morais, and Rolf Pfeiffer volunteered to work with Kauffman to create and sustain an intelligent, decision-making framework to apply to the pandemic and future crises. Together, the authors decided to call themselves “the Kantologos” (the “Song of Logic”). They hoped to move past conventional crisis management and switch off their tendencies toward autopilot thinking, which can beset any decision-maker. They found that “diversity in thought” translated to more enlightened outcomes. 

COVID-19 inspired a conceptual approach to problem-solving.

Dealing with COVID-19 was ...
