Problem Solving
& Decision
Making Process
Five Steps:
Gather information
After you determine and analyze the intensity
of the problem, gather supporting information.
Review documentation to support your thoughts.
Some information you can gather includes financial
statements, marketing metrics, and calculations,
such as customer acquisition cost. Depending on the
issue, the type of information you gather may vary.
Think about what reports to use to further analyze
the problem and back up your claims.
Brainstorm solutions
You can’t expect to come up with a solution to
your problem if you don’t brainstorm solutions. Set
aside time to think of solutions to your issue.
Consider holding a workshop where you can discuss
problems in your business with other workers. That
way, you can receive feedback from multiple people.
And, employees can bounce ideas off one another.
Depending on the number of problems you
have in your business, you may need to consult your
employees. Set aside time for regular meetings until
you determine a solution. Don’t be afraid to ask
others for their input. The more ideas you have, the
more likely you can find a viable solution to your
problem. Think back to previous problems you had in
your business. Were they similar to the current
issue? If so, how did you resolve the other problems?
When generating solutions, think outside of the box.
The solutions you and your team use don’t have to be
the same methods you have used in the past.
a. Amount of risk
b. Possible outcomes (short- and long-term)
c. Negative side effects (e.g., other problems)
d. Likeliness of success
