To work through a challenge.
خلفية ثقافية
Norwegian leaders use this phrase to signal empathy without losing authority. It acknowledges that employees are working hard during difficult times. Journalists and politicians use this as a 'safe' phrase to describe scandals or failures, framing them as something that is being 'processed' rather than just a disaster. Due to the value of 'modesty', Norwegians often use this phrase to downplay personal trauma, making it sound more like a project than a tragedy. The focus on 'process' over 'result' is a key part of the Nordic model of consensus-based decision making.

Don't Overuse It
