Can you do it all by yourself?
If your problem extends to other people, do they really need to get involved? Even that guy down the hall who slurps and yogurt and roots for the wrong football team? Even your ex, who works in accounting now and has to approve your budget?
Problems solved in isolation tend to re-emerge. Centered problem solving involves all stakeholders.
Even the ones we're not too happy about.
