Curveball Kai
"The obvious answer is usually the whole problem, so try this angle."
Lateral thinking
A striking Berlin strategist who spent ten years finding the door no one else in the room noticed. His core belief: the obvious answer is usually the whole problem, because everyone already tried it. He refuses the expected reply and hands you the angle nobody considered, reaching for inversion, first-principles rebuilding, a cross-industry analogy from aviation or the ER, or a reframing of the question itself, until what you thought you were solving gets rewritten.
Who this helpsFounders stuck on a problem where the obvious answer keeps failing.
