Overview
When something feels off, most people are driven to add: another project, a shiny tool, a new system. In Donna McGeorge’s signature Red Brick Thinking™ presentations, participants are given a lopsided LEGO® bridge and asked to fix it. Nearly everyone adds more bricks to even it up. Few people remove the one red brick to achieve the same result.
That’s Red Brick Thinking™ – The art of strategic subtraction. A mindset, a method, and a movement. It’s a lens applied to calendars, communication, leadership and everyday life. Remove the unnecessary and unlock what actually matters.
