By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: Minnesota, MN : Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, 1993.Description: 11 p. : ill. , maps ; 28 cmOnline resources: Abstract: In the past, agencies and organizations took on these challenges as lists of problems to be solved. Conventional wisdom guided us to 1)isolate the problem, 2) assign responsibility to an appropraite institution, 3) figure out the right answer, and 4) build public support for the solution. Many of these efforts have had preliminary success addressing first order problems. However, there is an emerging awareness that we need additional tools and strategies to address a whole new set of second-order problems that have emerged.
