When you have to make a tough choice, what process do you follow? Do you seek common ground and compromise, or dig in your heels and insist on your original perfect vision? It turns out there may be a third option. Jennifer Riel has been working with Roger Martin to share their research on integrative thinking, which teases out the best of opposing ideas to uncover a new and sometimes unexpected approach. In this episode of Hack the Process, Jennifer will share how she went from a liberal arts major into executive consulting, what role mentorship has played in her career choices, and why her work focus has broadened from the business world to the elementary school classroom.
