In our Outcome Leadership Program, we have an exercise that shows you how you currently solve problems.
We find leaders use a 3 step process that typically solves only a SYMPTOM of the problem. On top of that, the solutions they come up with are usually at a higher cost and more complicated to maintain. We use an 8 step process that gets to the root of the problem.
To be good at solving problems you need to make sure you first dig in deep to understand what the problem is before you try to solve it.
So, before you jump in tomorrow to solving a problem on your desk, take a moment to make sure you fully understand the problem. And if you have some big problems you want to be solved, call us to see how we can help you solve problems faster by getting to the root cause right away.
