%KINDS OF PROBLEMS 780317
To wisely solve a problem requires that the nature of
the problem be recognized. An emotional problem is not
wisely solved by money, technology, or legal procedures.
To respond to a problem in a way which is inappropriate to
the nature of the problem tends to complicate the problem.
People who become specialists tend to respond to all
problems in keeping with their narrow specialty, rather
than in keeping with the nature of the problem. Thus
specialists, "professionals", often tend to complicate
problems which require broad perceptions.
The wide variety of kinds of problems may be
suggested by pointing to the wide variety of responses to
them---through the following words: new/additional
techniques, perceptions, languages, formal symbolisms,
rituals, political procedures, metaphysical insights,
values, communication techniques, physical resources,
knowledge, desires, equipment, information-handling-
systems, information, legal procedures, medical
facilities/staff, psychiatric staff/insights, computation
facilities, financial resources/structures, personnel/
assignments, ethical/moral standards, scientific/
engineering research, social patterns/structures, cultural
traditions, affectional response-patterns, life-style
role-models, leaders, followers, sensitivities, special-
ties, integrative efforts, equipment, constructions,
buildings, institutions, organizations, etc. The
helpfulness of a response depends heavily upon how
appropriate the response is to the nature of the problem.
The first questions to be considered should therefore be
related to identifying the nature of the problem, and so
the kinds of response which may be appropriate to that
nature. Care must be exercised to avoid falling into the
trap of assuming that the most readily available expert,
who is a professional in some area of specialization, is
wise enough to perceive the nature of the problem, and so
wise enough to prescribe the appropriate kinds of
responses to the problem. Specialists will tend to
prescribe responses which are congruent with the narrow
perceptual framework of their professional specialization
--- whether or not those responses are appropriate.
We need specialists in the art of transcending
specialization!
