If you’ve ever spent hours circling the same business problem, this episode is for you. Cec Busby speaks with organisational creativity expert Ken Hudson, author of Switch Thinking, about breaking familiar thought patterns and getting unstuck in just a couple of minutes. Ken explains how switching perspectives, questions, focus, assumptions, and creative modes can open up new possibilities. From finding customers in cafés and gyms to using AI without outsourcing your creativity, this conversation offers practical ways for solo business owners to think differently, test ideas quickly, and move from “I know” to “I wonder.” Starting with one word: “switch.” Key topics 1. Breaking out of familiar thinking patterns Ken Hudson explains that repeated success reinforces familiar thinking, which can trap business owners in the same approach 01:25. Saying “switch” deliberately signals to your brain that it’s time to try another perspective 02:54. The new approach doesn’t have to be better immediately. It only needs to get you off the familiar track 03:43. Ken Hudson compares this to leaving a traffic jam and exploring a side street, even if you don’t know where it leads 03:53. 2. Using box mode and ball mode Box mode covers rational, logical, structured thinking and evaluating what has worked before 12:01. Ball mode encourages playful, imaginative thinking and the generation of unusual possibilities 12:30. Ken Hudson suggests switching from “This is what I know” to “I wonder” to open up creative options 13:22. Switching back to box mode helps test and narrow those ideas, such as choosing three ideas to test within 30 days 17:05. 3. Asking better questions Questions are one of Ken Hudson’s six switches, and changing the question can change the direction of the thinking 14:05. Instead of asking how to attract graduates, a consulting firm asked how to become “the most loved brand in Australia” 15:11\ 4. Applying switch thinking to business and AI Ken Hudson applied switch thinking to book promotion by placing copies in a café, professional waiting rooms, and a gym instead of relying only on bookstores 07:35. Business owners can switch their focus from direct competitors to what they’re really competing against, such as inertia, loyalty, or a client’s reluctance to take risks 25:03. AI can process and enhance ideas, but Ken Hudson says the original creative thinking still starts with the business owner 06:56. His practical AI approach is to request both a box-mode response and a more imaginative ball-mode response, then connect the two 31:50.
