Albert Einstein is arguably one of the greatest problem solvers of all time. Whether examining a physical phenomenon or business challenge his thoughts on problem solving are timelessly applicable. Below are some of these philosophies:
“We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.”
“It takes a higher order of thinking to fix a problem than that which created it.”
and
“Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius — and a lot of courage — to move in the opposite direction.”
Albert Einstein
Awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics, named Time’s Man of the Century in 1999, and best known for his conception of the theories of special and general relativity
“The past is an experience! The present is an experiment! The future is expectations! Use your experience in your experiment to achieve your expectations!”
