🌍

Kultureller Hintergrund

The phrase reflects the Swedish 'consensus culture' (konsensuskultur). It's better to 'look at possibilities' together than to have one person decide quickly. Using this phrase in a meeting shows you are 'seriös' (serious) and 'noggrann' (thorough). Influencers often use this when teasing new projects without revealing what they are yet. In research, this phrase is used to describe the initial phase of a study or literature review.

Use it to stall

If you don't have an answer in a meeting, say 'Vi tittar på möjligheter'. It sounds professional and buys you time.

⚠️

Don't forget 'på'

Saying 'titta möjligheter' is a very common beginner mistake. Always include 'på'.
