Abstraction Laddering
About the Abstraction Laddering Template
Based on a framework developed by American linguist S. I. Hayakawa and introduced in his 1939 book Language in Thought and Action. You can use the Abstraction Laddering Template to make sure you are solving the right problem the right way. Starting from a pre-defined problem statement, move up the ladder to expand the scope of your problem, or down the ladder to develop more concrete solutions.
The template has three sections: an area for your initial Problem Statement, a Why Ladder, and a How Ladde
