A kit on investing in talent at the level of the family, school and organisations, covering why it matters, how to identify gifted individuals, and models for nurturing talent.
Much of what people do is solve problems and make decisions. Often, they are "under the gun", stressed, and very short of time. Consequently, when they encounter a new problem or decision they must make, they react with a decision that seemed to work before. It's easy with this approach to get stuck in a circle of solving the same problem over and over again. Therefore, it's often useful to get used to an organised approach to problem-solving and decision-making. Not all problems can be solved and decisions are made by the following, rather a rational approach. However, the following basic guidelines will get you started. Don't be intimidated by the length of the list of guidelines. After you've practiced them a few times, they'll become second nature to you- enough that you can deepen and enrich them to suit your own needs and nature.

Look at potential causes for the problem Identify alternatives for approaches to resolve the problem
