This is a re-read, and I think I emjoyed this just as much this time around as I did the first lol.
It's a very lighthearted but really solid book about how to get better at problem solving by thinking outside the box, or redraw the box altogether in a different way. I love how the authors bring up a whole bunch of real-life scenarios of when people made daunting and difficult issues, records and problems down to a much more managable level by looking at them in a different way!
Many problems and decisions we face today on a daily basis often fall into a "can't see the forest for all the trees"-category, and it's easy to get stuck on the "obvious" solutions that, but this book really helps you take a step back and realize that maybe there is a much easier solution staring you in the face.
Overall, had a great time ! 👏👏 This one will definitely stay on my shelf for a good while until the next re-read 😁🩷
