These problems cause stress in our minds and leave us exhausted. Instinctively, we start to take ad-hoc actions that we think will resolve the problem, but we soon realize that our actions are not effective and do not prevent or solve the core problem. Structured problem solving provides a systematic approach to identify the root causes to a problem. Many scientific tools and methods have been developed to identify effective solutions to any problem. The most widely used problem solving techniques are Fishbone Diagram, Brainstorming, Failure Modes and Effects Analysis, SWOT matrix and 5Whys. Several organizations leverage these problem solving methods to manage their problems at work. Learning about problem solving tools will definitely help you to effectively solve your problems at work and in everyday life. This book will give you an understanding of the different problem solving tools along with practical examples and applications of these tools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the book every sales manager wishes they had—before they accepted the job. The advice within acts as a 24/7 coach for beleaguered sales leaders dealing with perplexing dilemmas. Sales leaders (managers, directors, and vice presidents) advocate for and often succeed in getting sales training for their reps, but when they request sales management training for themselves, the answer is often no. This lack of formal instruction lowers their chances of success. Drawn from the author’s experiences as a sales manager, sales management consultant, and coach, The Sales Leader’s Problem Solver offers guidance on solving common but difficult issues with the salesperson who: Sells inconsistently. Cheats on sales contests. Doesn’t enter data in the CRM. Calls only on the largest or easiest clients. Won’t prospect for new business. By providing a consistent format to follow, Suzanne Paling will help any sales leader level-headedly deal with any challenge by: Clarifying the issue. Creating a plan. Presenting a solution to executives. Discussing the issue with the rep(s) in question.The Sales Leader’s Problem Solver is a powerful tool that will help new and experienced sales managers lead their teams and develop their reputations as fair, effective, no-nonsense problem solvers.

Book excerpt: The fun and simple problem-solving guide that took Japan by storm Ken Watanabe originally wrote Problem Solving 101 for Japanese schoolchildren. His goal was to help shift the focus in Japanese education from memorization to critical thinking, by adapting some of the techniques he had learned as an elite McKinsey consultant. He was amazed to discover that adults were hungry for his fun and easy guide to problem solving and decision making. The book became a surprise Japanese bestseller, with more than 370,000 in print after six months. Now American businesspeople can also use it to master some powerful skills. Watanabe uses sample scenarios to illustrate his techniques, which include logic trees and matrixes. A rock band figures out how to drive up concert attendance. An aspiring animator budgets for a new computer purchase. Students decide which high school they will attend. Illustrated with diagrams and quirky drawings, the book is simple enough for a middleschooler to understand but sophisticated enough for business leaders to apply to their most challenging problems.

Book excerpt: Solving complex problems and selling their solutions is critical for personal and organizational success. For most of us, however, it doesn’t come naturally and we haven’t been taught how to do it well. Research shows a host of pitfalls trips us up when we try: We’re quick to believe we understand a situation and jump to a flawed solution. We seek to confirm our hypotheses and ignore conflicting evidence. We view challenges incompletely through the frameworks we know instead of with a fresh pair of eyes. And when we communicate our recommendations, we forget our reasoning isn’t obvious to our audience. How can we do it better? In Cracked It!, seasoned strategy professors and consultants Bernard Garrette, Corey Phelps and Olivier Sibony present a rigorous and practical four-step approach to overcome these pitfalls. Building on tried-and-tested (but rarely revealed) methods of top strategy consultants, research in cognitive psychology, and the latest advances in design thinking, they provide a step-by-step process and toolkit that will help readers tackle any challenging business problem. Using compelling stories and detailed case examples, the authors guide readers through each step in the process: from how to state, structure and then solve problems to how to sell the solutions. Written in an engaging style by a trio of experts with decades of experience researching, teaching and consulting on complex business problems, this book will be an indispensable manual for anyone interested in creating value by helping their organizations crack the problems that matter most.

Book excerpt: Tom Adair, drawing on three decades of experience as an internationally known author, lecturer, coach, and Toyota-trained lean Sensei, has written a clear and accessible problem solving primer. He carefully walks you through the Toyota-based method for getting to a problem's root cause, provides step-by-step instructions with real-life examples, explains each principle along the way, and provides a strategy for implementing and sustaining your countermeasures so they become permanent fixes to your most challenging problems.Tom fills his book with real-life scenes and dialogue that bring you into the problem-solving experience. See how easy it is to jump to conclusions based on the wrong assumptions, and see how following the process and continuing to question the "facts" can bring you to the root cause and an eventual solution. Also, see how management and on-the-ground value adders can work together to solve problems quickly and effectively.Tom explains his five fundamental principles of SPPS, and then demonstrates the important roles they play throughout the problem solving process, as seen through a series of case studies. What can you take away from this ebook? 1. Core behaviors to live by throughout the problem solving process2. List of red flags that trigger your awareness of a problem3. Approach for grasping the current situation when a problem surfaces4. Process for investigating the problem5. Method for characterizing the countermeasure (solution) to the problem6. Process for ensuring the problem doesn't returnEveryone encounters problems, and everyone needs to learn the skills to solve them. This makes "Solved!" an invaluable resource. Tom has taught SPPS to those in industry, government and the military and this ebook takes those lessons and distills them into the essentials of SPPS; the methodology works in any environment. As a leader or manager, when you see the same problems reoccur or find yourself drawn into the search for solutions that your people should be able to find themselves, then you appreciate the need to develop better problem solvers within your organization. As an on-the-ground value adder, when you see bureaucracy or inefficiency get in the way of a common sense resolution to a problem, then you wish for a better way."Solved!" can be the first step in the answer to both situations. The method taught and real-life lessons demonstrated in this ebook can provide the knowledge base for an organization-wide effort to make everyone an active and empowered problem solver.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to take advantage of technology, data, and the collective wisdom in our communities to design powerful solutions to contemporary problems The challenges societies face today, from inequality to climate change to systemic racism, cannot be solved with yesterday's toolkit. Solving Public Problems shows how readers can take advantage of digital technology, data, and the collective wisdom of our communities to design and deliver powerful solutions to contemporary problems. Offering a radical rethinking of the role of the public servant and the skills of the public workforce, this book is about the vast gap between failing public institutions and the huge number of public entrepreneurs doing extraordinary things--and how to close that gap. Drawing on lessons learned from decades of advising global leaders and from original interviews and surveys of thousands of public problem solvers, Beth Simone Noveck provides a practical guide for public servants, community leaders, students, and activists to become more effective, equitable, and inclusive leaders and repair our troubled, twenty-first-century world.
