How You Will Benefit
Much of what people do is solve problems and make decisions are often “under the gun”! Associates are stressed and very short pf time. Consequently, when they encounter a new problem or decision they must make, they react with a decision that seemed to work before. It is easy with this approach to get stuck in a circle of solving the same problem over and over again. Because of the difficulty associated with identifying problems before they occur, most companies do not attempt to identify problems until after they experience their effects. Companies attempt to discover the problems at this point to avoid recurrence. After-the-fact problem identification usually focuses on the failure mechanism rather than the true root cause(s). Therefore, it is often useful to get used to a structured approach to problem-solving and decision-making such as 5P. Not all problems will be solved by following this rational approach, however, the clear majority will be addressed.
Benefits of Utilizing the 5 Principles
A workplace with a Problem-Solving environment will:
– Assist in defining complex problems
– Enable prioritization of problems
– Allow team members to understand their role(s) in problem-solving
– Increase efficiency and productivity
– Enhance team building and increased feelings of competency
