Management Training – Problem Solving
February 22nd, 2010 Posted in Management Practices, Your Business
Throughout your management career (and indeed your personal life) problems will rear
their ugly head and stop you in your tracks, add a good dose of stress and usually finished
off with some sleep deprivation. Of course as well as the problem, the general symptoms
don’t make it easy for a person to sort through the problem effectively. The trick with all
problems is to tackle them in a logical manner gather the facts and try and gain an
understanding of how the problem happened
Throughout your management career (and indeed your personal life) problems will rear their ugly head and stop you in your tracks, add a good dose of stress and usually finished off with some sleep deprivation. Of course as well as the problem, the general symptoms don’t make it easy for a person to sort through the problem effectively. The trick with all problems is to tackle them in a logical manner gather the facts and try and gain an understanding of how the problem happened the chain of events that lead to that problem.The process is called cause & effect something happens (the cause) which leads to a series of events that creates the problem(s) (the effect(s)). The problem we all have is that the effects are often very obvious to us and we more often or not think that the effects are the real problem thus never truly identifying the cause and thus never really solving the problem.
Once the process has been clarified and the REAL problem identified it is time to put an action plan into place to rectify the immediate problem and also to ensure the same problem does not happen again. Of course there is no point in doing any of these processes if there is no feedback at the end to ensure the same problems don’t arise in the future!!
