  2. Problem Identification What are the problems, challenges, and barriers interfering with our progress? Develop a List of Problems 1. Individually B Jot down as many problems, etc that come to mind in about 2 minutes 2. Cooperatively B Share individual lists and create a joint list in about 5 minutes Do Not Solve (yet) Be Realistic and Specific

  3. Addressing Problems -Iteration One • Select One Problem • 2. Clarify the Problem • 3. BRAINSTORMING B Create at least Three Possible Actions that will Solve, Resolve or Eliminate the Problem • 4. PLANNING B Prioritize the Possible Solutions: Plan A, Plan B...Develop a Plan • 5. Establish Specifications, Constraints, Criteria for Workable Solutions

  4. Suggested Group Roles • Recorder B Prepares and submits written product from group. • Scribe B Records group=s ideas, suggestions, plans, etc. on Flip Chart • Summarizer/Reporter B Prepares and presents brief summary of group=s work

  5. Group Processing B Plus/Delta Format B Delta Things Group Could Improve Plus Things That Group Did Well

  6. Addressing Problems B Iteration Two • Refine plan from Iteration One; Select a Different Problem From List; or Formulate and Address a New Problem • BRAINSTORMING B Create at least Three Possible Actions that will Solve, Resolve or Eliminate the Problem • PLANNING B Prioritize the Possible Solutions: Plan A, Plan B...Develop a Plan

  7. Addressing Problems B Iteration Three • Invert the Problem B • Which Problems Could Be Solved • with a Given Solution? • Chose a Solution • Summarize how particular problems could be addressed with that solution

  8. Implement a Process (such as this) to Identify, Formulate, and Solve Problems • Expect Some Problems, Challenges, and Barriers • Recognize problems when they appear (or before they appear) • With one or more colleagues, develop three or more solutions • Implement one, evaluate, replan, and retry
