Disagree to Disagree

90% of the time when two people disagree about a solution, they really disagree about the problem.

Usually Person A’s solution is the best for the problem that Person A sees.

And usually Person B’s solution is the best for the problem that Person B sees.

But since they go back and forth about who’s solution is best, they never realize that they are talking about two different problems.

If they would just step back and discuss the problem, they will resolve their disagreement so much sooner. But alas, defining the problem is boring analysis and who wants to do that?
