A consultant’s goal is to change the employees’ fixation on problems and wanting answers to a discovery approach. The discovery approach focuses on what is working well in a workplace and creates a story or vision for the future. The discovery approach, therefore, looks to what is possible, which means the consultant must be a little more patient and relaxed when dealing with resistance.
