Bedeutung
to start working on a solution
Kultureller Hintergrund
Danes value 'flad struktur' (flat hierarchy). This means anyone, not just the boss, can suggest 'at tage fat om problemet'. It is seen as showing initiative rather than overstepping. There is a shared cultural emphasis on pragmatism. 'Tage fat' is a very 'Jutlandic' (Jysk) expression, often associated with being hardworking and no-nonsense. In Danish meetings, 'at tage fat om problemet' is often the signal that the 'brainstorming' phase is over and the 'execution' phase has begun.
Sound Decisive
Use this phrase in job interviews when asked how you handle stress. It shows you are proactive.
Preposition Alert
Don't say 'tage fat på problemet'—though understandable, 'om' is much more common for 'problems'.
