Welcome to The Problem Solver’s Dojo

A monthly practice space for bold thinkers, team builders, and everyday problem solvers.

Powered by The KPI Lab

This isn’t a webinar.

It’s a dojo—a space to train, experiment, and grow.

Each month, we’ll meet virtually to explore real-life strategies that help you work smarter, save time, and lead with more clarity.

In these sessions, you’ll learn how to:

  • Define the right problems before jumping to solutions

  • Create systems that save time and reduce frustration

  • Eliminate waste and work more efficiently

  • Run experiments to make progress without perfection

  • Use tools that help you focus, move forward, and lead with intention

Whether you’re leading a team, managing a project, running a business—or just tired of spinning in circles and ready to do things differently—this space is for you.

Standards That Stick

In July’s session, we dug into one of the most overlooked—but essential—tools for problem solving: standards. Together, we unpacked why so many problems trace back to a missing, unclear, or outdated standard—and how good standards create clarity, consistency, and trust. Participants explored the difference between SOPs, standard work, and leader standard work, drew inspiration from The Checklist Manifesto, and tackled real-world scenarios to practice diagnosing breakdowns. We didn’t just talk process—we talked people, trust, and the role of leadership in making standards stick.

Defining Success & Measuring What Matters

In our kickoff session, we explored what success really looks like—for ourselves, our teams, and our organizations. Participants learned how to use the Daily Management Tier Board to track meaningful progress, apply the Progress Principle to boost motivation, and design small, actionable experiments. We challenged traditional metrics and surfaced new ways to measure what matters—like curiosity, emotional state, and daily habits.
