351: Advanced predictive problem solving (Turquoise Eyes: A Novel about Problem Solving & Critical Thinking)
For this episode, let's revisit a Strategy Skills classic where we discuss advanced predictive problem solving.
Turquoise Eyes started off the groundbreaking new genre developed by FIRMSconsulting that combines compelling narrative while teaching problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Set after a bank begins implementing a new retail banking strategy, we follow Teresa García Ramírez de Arroyo, a director-general in the Mexican government, who has received some disturbing news. A whistleblower has emailed Teresa with troubling news about a mistake in the loan default calculations and reserve ratios. The numbers do not add up.
