- Problem Solving Kids Basics
- problem solvers constantly try to pro-actively shape their environment
- you can learn to think, make decisions, act and be proactive
- it is a skill and habit
- different types of people
- miss sigh: easily gives up and is terrified of failing
- mr critic: shoots down other ideas, but doesn’t actually get stuff done himself
- miss dreamer: big dream no action
- mr go getter: works effortlessly to get things done, but not in best way
- problem solver: sets goals and gets things done efficiently
- identify root cause and set specific goals
- problem solvers grow quicker which as big impact in the long-term
- problem solving
- understand current situation
- identify root cause
- develop effective action plan
- execute
- modify as necessary
- different people have different reasons for problems so need custom-made plan
- logic-tree: learn to break issues or solutions into non-overlapping segments
- Rock Bands and Root Causes
- understand the symptom, identify root cause, develop effective solutions
- diagnose
- list all potential causes
- develop hypothesis for likely root cause
- determine the analysis and info required to test hypothesis
- analyze and identify the root cause
- develop the solution
- come up with a wide variety
- prioritize actions
- develop implementation plan
- usually many potential reasons so use yes/no logic tree to identify different causes/groups
- identify size of each bucket
- understand point of data collection and analysis is to make better decisions
- figure out how to collect info e.g. surveys / sample interviews?
- analysis often at odds with original hypothesis
- solutions
- come up with as many as you can
- evaluate feasibility later / can lead to creative solutions
- prioritization
- limited time and money
- think about impact vs ease
- prioritize high impact and easy implementation
- any ways to change the equation? can you get help from others? different people have different strengths
- Fishy Goals and solid achievements
- Set a clear goal
- determine the gap between the goal and current situation
- form a hypothesis about how to close the gap
- list as many options and ideas as possible
- use logic trees
- expand vertically for new ways
- expand right for more specificity
- check the hypothesis and form new hypothesis if wrong
- when you have a clear hypothesis, better able to collect info and conduct analysis efficiently
- set clear, specific goals / what, when, under what conditions?
- specific goals lead to specific plans
- analyze and develop action plan
- execution is most critical
- write down everything you will do and when you plan to do it
- Soccer school pros and cons
- problem solvers figure out how to make the best decisions
- consider pros and cons
- list all options, weight pros and cons, add weights, select most attractive
- reconsider and evaluate assumptions and criteria
- challenge your own thinking
- figure out what actions you can take to make better decisions
- find someone who can help you determine right criteria
- find someone who can help you rate by criteria
- by identifying something is a problem, more likely to come across solution
- take control of your life and solve not only your problem but the worlds
