Organisation Week : Day 5: "Decision Making and Problem Solving"
January 7:
Decision Making and Problem Solving
The one common experience of all humanity is the challenge of problems
Its the fifth day of Organisation Week! The theme of the day is Decision Making and Problem Solving!
-Much of what people do is solve problems and make decisions.
-Often, they are "under the gun", stressed and very short for time.
-Consequently, when they encounter a new problem or decision they must make, they react with a decision that seemed to work before.
-It's easy with this approach to get stuck in a circle of solving the same problem over and over again.
-Therefore, it's often useful to get used to an organized approach to problem solving and decision making.
-Decision making and problem solving cannot always be done by rational methods.
WHAT TO DO?
-Define the problem :
This is often where people struggle. They react to what they think the problem is. Instead, seek to understand more about why you think there's a problem.
-Defining complex problems :
If the problem still seems overwhelming, break it down until you have descriptions of several related problems.
-Verifying your understanding of the problems :
It helps a great deal to verify your problem analysis for conferring with a peer or someone else.
-Prioritize the problems :
If you discover that you are looking at several related problems, then prioritize which ones you should address first.
Note the difference between "important" and "urgent" problems.
-Understand your role in the problem :
Your role in the problem can greatly influence how you perceive the role of others.
-Look at potential causes for the problem.
(Write down a description of the cause of the problem and in terms of what is happening, where, when, how, with whom and why.)
-Identify alternatives for approaches to resolve the problem
-Select an approach to resolve the problem.
Plan the implementation of the best alternative (this is your action plan).
-Communicate the plan to those who will involved in implementing it and, at least, to your immediate supervisor.
-Monitor implementation of the plan.
-Verify if the problem has been resolved or not.
