This week’s meeting started with visiting LEF future center at Utrecht. We meet with Robert Verheule ( team manager & senior facilitator at LEF).
What is LEF Future center?
We are all familiar with standard meeting rooms. An ordinary setting with table and couple of chairs where the employer usually sits at the head table and starts the topic of the meeting. Suggest that the arrangement of the environment (meeting room) table, colors of the wall, chairs or the attitude of people in the room for example, how they talk, sit and even the eye contact effects the outcome of the meeting. This may lead into faster and more concrete results and conflicts can be avoid or solved sooner. Through (scientific)research LEF have shown the various effects of different methods and equipment for example, pictures they use, or the attitude of people can lead to a rapid (final)result.
LEF aims for creating different room concepts during different parts of a decision making or problem solving phase. The core of LEF future center consists of 'scientific knowledge', ' working with people 'and 'technology'. The latter component is particularly for support. Since the opening in 2008 People can step into a new world where fantasy has pore limitations. Advanced facilities like sound and image, movable walls, tantalising interior elements and a 270-degree theater allows to control the atmosphere to create a new “world” where people are able to think beyond their limits.
“We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them”, Albert Einstein .

After introduction, Mr. Verheule introduced us to different methods and how they lead there workshops at LEF future center. In addition, he explained the brain function based on three levels. To understand the brain better, it distinguishes three layers: 1. Primitive reptile or animal 2. Dog 3. Man. The most important part of the brain is the core, where decision making takes place. Furthermore, we discussed the social behavior part of the brain which is most important part in interacting with another. And finally Naturalistic Decision Making or (NDM) driven by recognition decision ( RPD) and heuristic and biases (HB) in decision making. Additionally Mr. Verheule recommend us to read the paper Conditions for Intuitive Expertise, by Daniel Kahneman & Gary Klein.
Part 2 of meeting:
Based on our last weeks meeting with Peter (our coach) we continued brainstorming about a broader aspect of our topics (key and Solution). This weeks brainstorm session led to a broader insights of our topic. Both the connection as separate meanings. In the context of these two aspects we considered key-solution ratio, where we end up brainstorming about Uniqueness.
This new insights concerned:
· * Understanding the meaning of Uniqueness, what is uniqueness according to our opinion?
· No predictability.
In addition we brainstormed about solution in other states:
·
* Understanding a broader aspect of solution. For example, solution as Experiment, Fuel, energy and plasma.
· * Understanding transition of states. When is something called solution. Is vapor still a solution?
· * Solution as a conductor.
Finally we discussed other meanings of key, for example a key as an controller or a button. Or a key can be specific to execute only one task. Furthermore we discussed other terms related to key, for example within a process a key can refer to a key moment, whereby a key moment is turning point or a climax where (true) solution reveals itself. Or like Rosetta stone the stone functioned as a key to dissolving the Egyptian hieroglyphs.
