Iceberg Theory
The Iceberg Theory is a metaphor that illustrates how visible behaviors and events often have deeper, invisible causes and motives. It helps to develop a deeper understanding of situations and behaviors.
Metaphors are catchy, create an image in the mind, and increase memorization and awareness of a topic. The iceberg theory provides a good starting point for further reflection and analysis. The image is also well suited for communicative measures, as it is largely self-explanatory.
💡 Tip from practice: Use the iceberg theory in team discussions to develop a shared understanding of the underlying factors.
