Shifting how people see problems - so they can solve smarter.
To empower people everywhere with the mindset, tools, and confidence to tackle real-world problems effectively—through deep understanding, creative ideation, and testable innovation. We believe problem-solving is a human skill that can be taught, practiced, and mastered.
Problem Hacking doesn't just teach solutions. We teach people how to fall in love with the problem—to listen, to explore, and to uncover what really needs to change before building anything at all.
Problem Hacking is where curiosity meets creativity, where strategic thinking meets experimentation, and where learners become confident, capable problem-solvers.
The Values That Drive Us
We bring structure to chaos. By distilling complex problems to their core, we unlock better thinking and better solutions.
Creativity isn’t random—it’s a process. We teach people to apply creative thinking systematically to solve meaningful problems.
We don’t chase perfection on the first try. We test early, learn from data, and refine constantly.
We focus on transferability. Our goal isn’t just to solve one problem—it’s to build the ability to solve many.
"The Problem Hacking methodology gives you something that’s missing in most organisations, permission to slow down, sit with the problem, and understand it. It creates the space for curiosity, for learning, for critical thought — and that’s something I never experienced in any other method or workplace. I believe this needs to become the norm, not the exception.”
"Problem Hacking is helping to change how organisations think — not just about solutions, but about the problems themselves. When people learn to pause, engage deeply, and question with discipline, they don’t just solve better problems — they lead better, build better, and create change that lasts."
Problem Hacking exists to help organisations and individuals approach complex challenges with clarity, creativity, and commercial discipline.
Since 2015, more than 82,000 people across 84 countries have experienced the Problem Hacking learning experience - a distinctive, human-centred approach to solving complex problems.
Our work is grounded in a core belief: that real innovation doesn’t begin with solutions—it begins with understanding. Whether designing a new strategy, reimagining a service, engaging communities, or leading change in a complex organisation, we help individuals and teams pause at the start, speak directly with those affected by the problem, and co-create meaningful, testable ideas.
Over the past decade, we’ve delivered more than 1,200 workshops and partnered with over 30 ASX 200 firms—from corporate transformation to startup innovation and public policy reform. This experience informs every course we offer.
At the heart of Problem Hacking is an award-winning team of educators, with decades of experience teaching strategy, innovation, and systems thinking at world leading universities. Our academic foundations bring rigor. Our global reach brings perspective. And our commitment to experimentation, co-design and empathy equips learners to tackle even the most entrenched challenges.
Today, Problem Hacking is more than an EdTech —it’s a growing movement of problem solvers worldwide, united by a shared commitment: to design better solutions by first understanding problems better.
