Performance Problem Solving Overview

---

Interact Performance Systems' Performance Problem Solving program is designed to increase people's effectiveness by improving the way they solve interpersonal relationship problems they routinely face. This article is organized following the outline below.

Performance Problem Solving shows participants how to demand accountability & ownership while building commitment & strong working relationships. This program builds concrete tools for solving the kinds of problems that undercut performance. This is not a "theory" course—participants leave with hands-on skills. This is not "charm school" either—participants learn practical skills for handling tough problems.

KU-ITTC Ice Sheet Remote Sensing (8524am)

Tundra, Polar Deserts, and Ice

Canadian Tundra

A large area of tundra surrounds the Arctic Ocean. The tundra supports grasses, mosses, lichens, and heather that survive subfreezing temperatures during the long winter and grow and bloom during the brief, cool summer. In Canada and Alaska, this plant life sustains animals such as polar hares, ptarmigans, voles, caribou, and polar bears. So far this thinly settled landscape has escaped severe ecological damage. However, oil production in Alaska and an increase in ultraviolet radiation caused by the destruction of atmospheric ozone threaten the fragile tundra environment.

Siberian Tundra

Arctic tundra, with similar vegetation to that of North America, also covers northernmost Siberia. The wildlife here includes reindeer, Siberian lemmings, and Arctic foxes. Although the tundra environment remains mostly unspoiled, increased ultraviolet radiation in the Arctic may threaten the plants and animals of this region as well.

Antarctica's Ice Sheet and Polar Desert

A vast ice sheet covers most of Antarctica. Even this forbidding environment, however, supports some life. Snow algae and other microorganisms live on water and nutrients in the ice sheet. In ice-free areas on the coast and in the mountains, lichens and mosses grow on rocks, and protozoans, bacteria, and worms inhabit the soil. Coastal areas also harbor sea birds such as penguins. A severe loss of ozone in the atmosphere over Antarctica has allowed damaging ultraviolet radiation to reach the ground, threatening this fragile environment. The radiation has already begun to kill the marine life on which penguins and other animals depend.

Greenland's Tundra and Ice

Greenland's interior is covered by an ice sheet like that of Antarctica, but along its coasts is a strip of tundra like that of other Arctic regions. Animals that inhabit this zone include the musk-ox and the colorful puffin, a sea bird like the penguin of Antarctica. Ozone depletion threatens this region as well.

Dog Sledding on Greenland's Ice Sheet :: http://futurthought.blogspot.com/

With a climate ranging from arctic to subarctic, Greenland is anything but green. Much of the island is covered by a huge ice cap, larger than any other glacier in the world except that of Antarctica. Water drains from the ice sheet in the form of glaciers, which pass through valleys to the sea, where thousands of icebergs form every year. Hunters use sled dogs to traverse the vast, frozen landscape in pursuit of fur-bearing animals to trap.

Consequential Learning Implications Wheel (7804pm)

By thinking about & answering these two challenging questions on your own, & against your own background, you will begin to understand & appreciate the essence of the author's proposition.

This will be the beginning of your own paradigm shift, as it has happened in my own life design for the second half. I would recommend readers to buy and read this book jointly with Wayne Burkan's Wide-Angle Vision. Wayne Burkan has been a collaborator of Joel Barker, and he introduces some more new ideas to the paradigm phenomenon.

Better still, view also and learn more from the videos (in which both authors are the lead facilitators), The Paradigm Prism and The Implications Wheel, which bring the whole paradigm concept to life and which showcase some more real-world business examples. If you want to explore your future, read this book!

As the author puts it, before you can create your future, you must F1RST explore it. You must create and shape your future, otherwise some one else will!
