Step #1: Identify the Specific Problem and Create a One-Sentence Description.
This step sounds easy, but it is actually the most difficult and the most critical step as well. If your problem statement is too vague, then you will likely struggle with trying to come up with valid solutions. Also, if the problem statement is too encompassing, then a solution might be too complex to easily implement. And sometimes your problem statement seems too easy to you and you will come up with very general solutions/known solutions
e.g. what are the different uses of empty box ? Very common and general answers are pencil stand, flower vase, photo frame holder etc etc.
Step #2: What are the Possibly Causes
A common error at this point in the process is to jump right into looking for solutions to the problem before trying to identify the root causes of the problem. This usually results in a “band-aid” solution.
Take some time to identify what some of the root causes of the problem are, and you will come up with solutions to these root causes much more quickly.
Step #3: What are the Possible Solutions
Once the root causes are uncovered, solutions should start popping like popcorn. Put down on paper.
You will have a number of solutions to choose from and each was helpful in helping solve your problem, but in some cases, you may have to weed out possible solutions to discover a best possible solution.
Step #4: What’s the Best Possible Solution
In this step, you’ll want to weigh the pros and cons of each solution to determine what is the best plan of action based on what you know . You may find that half way through implementation that one of the other solutions might work better. It’s okay to regroup and begin to implement another solution if the first “Best Possible Solution” turns out to be a poor choice after all. Don’t be afraid to take risks, though. Be willing to go out on a limb to create a c
Step #5: Create an Implementation Plan
Once the solution is decided upon, create a detailed plan of action i.e. work flow you dont need to use your brain/mind once your work flow is done.
