Chuck Scifers: I approach any problem to be solved by utilizing the “Design Thinking” approach. With an advanced degree in Industrial Design, and years of experience in Engineering, Product Development, Management, Marketing and Sales, I approach each situation with a broad, rather than deep philosophy. Knowing the priorities and problems of all of the areas of the business enterprise provides a cognitive overview and enables a creative and innovative approach. As Principal in MetaMatrix Groupe, I have assembled a cadre of industry professionals that are available and directed toward solving select problems of the emerging enterprise on a cost-effective, as-needed basis. This approach of incorporating “T” shaped professionals results in far more successful projects than a single focused deep-dive into a single discipline. For, unless the entire organization understands and accepts the problems and designs a whole solution, complete success is rarely achieved. USA
