An infographic illustrating the "Frame the Problem First" strategy method, structured as a four-part narrative quest: 1. The Hero (Context, e.g., a regional bank), 2. The Treasure (Aspiration, e.g., faster lending), 3. The Dragon (Obstacle, e.g., legacy system constraints), and 4. The Quest (Framing the solvable question). The background is light cream, with red, blue, orange, and yellow color-coded sections and text referencing www.juanfernandopacheco.com.
