The Key to Double Loop Learning
Push the single loop to the point of failure, to strengthen how you act in the double loop.
- Stop getting defensive. Instead, collect and analyze relevant data, draw conclusions and test them.
- Change your mental models. Problem-solving isn’t a linear process where you can make one decision and then sit back and await success.
- Fail early. Fail fast. If you learn to deal with failure you can have a worthwhile career.
