As the Proprietor of Your own company you
deal with problems on an almost daily basis. Getting comfortable
with effective Problem
Solving Techniques can dramatically
affect the growth of your small business.
Although you
Find solutions to your problems, many businessmen and women are
not really proficient in the methods of problem
solving, and
if solutions fail, they fault themselves for misjudgment. The
issue is usually not misjudgment but rather a lack of
skill.
This manual Educates you in a few problem solving
processes. Crucial to the success of a business faced with
issues is your
comprehension of what the issues are, defining
themfinding solutions, and picking the best answers for your
situations.
What's a problem. A dilemma is a situation
that poses trouble or perplexity. Issues are available in many
shapes and dimensions.
By Way of Example, it can be:
Something did Not work as it should and you do not know how or
why. Something you need is inaccessible, and something must be
found to take its place. Workers are undermining a new program.
The market isn't purchasing. What do you do to survive? Clients
are complaining. How can you manage their complaints?
Where do Issues come from? Issues arise from every facet of
human and mechanical purposes as well as in nature. Some
problems we
cause ourselves (e.g., a hasty decision has been
made and the wrong individual was selected for the job);
additional problems are
brought on by forces beyond our
control (e.g., a warehouse is struck by lightning and burns ).
Issues are a Natural, regular occurrence of lifestyle,
and in order to suffer less from the anxieties and frustrations
they cause,
we need to learn to deal with them in a rational,
logical fashion.
If we accept The simple fact that
issues will arise on a regular basis, for many different
motives, and by an assortment of
resources, we can: learn to
approach problems from an objective standpoint; learn how to
expect some of these; and prevent some of
them from getting
larger problems.
To accomplish This, you need to learn
the procedure for problem solving. Here, we'll instruct you in
the basic procedures of
problem-solving. It's a step-by-step
guide which you can easily follow and exercise. As you follow
this manual, you will
eventually develop some tips of your
own that function in concert with all the problem-solving
procedure described in this guide.
Keep in mind,
However, as you see that this is not a thorough analysis of the
art of problem-solving but rather a practical,
orderly, and
simplified, yet powerful, way to approach issues contemplating
the limited time and information most business owners
and
managers possess. In addition, some problems are so complex that
they need the further help of experts in the field, so be
prepared to accept that a number of issues are beyond just one
individual's ability, skill, and desire to be successful.
To be able to Appropriately recognize the problem and its
causes, you have to do some study. To do this, just list each of
the
previous queries in checklist form, and maintaining the
checklist useful, go about gathering as much info as you
possibly can.
Remember the relative importance and urgency of
the problem, in addition to your own time limitations. Then
interview the folks
involved with the issue, asking them the
questions on your checklist.
After you've Gathered the
information and reviewed it, you'll have a fairly clear
understanding of the problem and what the
significant causes
of the problem are. At this point, you can research the causes
farther through observation and extra
interviewing. Now, you
should summarize the problem as briefly as you can, list all of
the causes you've identified, and record
all of the areas the
issue seems to be affecting.
Now, You are ready to check
your comprehension of the issue. You have already identified the
problem, broken it all down to all
its facets, narrowed down
it, done research on it, and you are avoiding typical
roadblocks. On a large pad, write down the issue,
including
all the factors, the regions it affects, and what the
consequences are. To get a better visual comprehension, you
might
also wish to diagram the problem showing cause and
effect.
Study what you Have written down or diagrammed.
Call in your workers and talk about your analysis together.
Based on their
opinions, you may choose to revise. Once you
believe you fully comprehend the causes and consequences of the
problem, summarize
the problem as succinctly and as easily as
you can.
Go through your Long list of solutions and
cross-out those who clearly will not work. Those notions aren't
wasted for they impact
on those thoughts that stay. To put it
differently, the best ideas you pick may be revised based on the
ideas that would not work.
With the rest of the solutions,
use what is called the"Force Field Analysis Technique." This is
basically an analysis technique
that divides down the
solution to its positive effects and negative outcomes. To do
this, write each solution you are
contemplating on a
different piece of paper. Beneath the solution, draw a line
vertically down the middle of the paper. Label one
column
advantages and one column disadvantages.
Now, some more
Analytical thinking comes in to play. Analyzing each facet of
this solution and its influence on the issue, listing
every
one of the benefits and disadvantages you may consider.
One way to help You think of the advantages and disadvantages is
to role-play every solution. Call in a few of your employees and
play out each alternative. Ask them to their own reactions.
Depending on what you observe and on their opinions, you will
have a
clearer idea of the advantages and disadvantages of
each alternative you're thinking about.
Once you
Complete this process for each solution, pick those solutions
that have the Many advantages. Now, you should be
considering
only three or two.
