Recognize the strength that was there all along.
Josh finds a new way to understand his work and contribution by recognizing his gift for optimization.
The person behind the story
Meet Josh.
Feeling stuck does not always mean a person lacks ability. Josh joins Jack to discuss uncertainty, misalignment, and the shift that comes with a clearer understanding of a natural strength. For Josh, that strength is optimization: seeing how a system or situation could work better.
