Our brain often gets stuck in its own single-loop thinking. We try something, it works, we do it again. It works again. Aha! Now, we have a pattern. That's the job of the brain - to find a pattern that it can rely on so that it can take shortcuts and not waste energy. As long as that works, we call that success - why change it? Why go outside the loop?
Unfortunately, as the environment changes, the pattern also needs to change. Oftentimes, when we can't be successful applying a well-used pattern, we get confused and start to blame the circumstances...after all, it used to work?

Today's business climate is no longer the stable, consistent, repeat what you know, take your time, way of working that leaves people feeling confident. Today is filled with uncertainty, complexity and decision-making that may not go from point A to point B or have the same logic and rational that is comfortable & familiar. Therefore, what do people rely on? What can they trust?
Without getting outside our brain or the collective brain of the organization, businesses are doomed to repeat the same patterns, in one form or another. Thinking patterns shape the future, your future and the future of the organization. To unleash performance, you have to upgrade your mental models and expand your mind or think from a whole new terrain.
