We live in a wicked world!

“For complex situations, also in communication, there is no
definitive statement of "The Problem."
The problems coming out of briefings are often ill-structured
because an evolving set of interlocking issues and
constraints makes it impossible to structure them well.”




(Rittel and Webber, 1973 )
We live in a wicked world!
Wicked problems briefing



Analyze the situation…

It can be described in different
ways and then you will project
different solutions…

there is no one way to
formulate the problem!
Solutions to wicked problems…



… cannot be true or false,
although they can be good or
bad…
Explanation to wicked problems



… there is always more than
one plausible explanation for a
wicked problem…
Testing solutions…



… there is no single right or
true test for a solution to a
wicked problem…
And…



… every wicked problem is
   unique…
Wicked problem education



“Learning is any change in a
system that produces a
more or less permanent
change in its capacity for
adapting to its
environment.”



Herbert Simon
