Beskrivning

From Problem Solving To Solution DesignCreating solutions to solve problems can often prove very difficult to accomplish, even for seasoned Solution Designers. Complex organizational problems have several stakeholders, endless variables, and a myriad of possible solutions. It’s hard enough to figure out where to start, and even harder to realize what the perfect, mutually-beneficial solution is. With their combined tenure of over fifty years, J. Eduardo Campos and Erica W. Campos present their Solution-Designing expertise in From Problem Solving to Solution Design so that you can learn from their successes (and their failures) to craft sustainable solutions for complex problems. Specifically, you will learn how to implement the I.D.E.A.S. framework that they have been perfecting over the years, which includes five critical checkpoints that any Solution Designer must hit to create solutions that are successfully envisioned, negotiated with stakeholders, and implemented to last over time. • IDENTIFY THE ESSENTIAL PROBLEM AND PRIORITIZE YOUR ACTIONS TO SOLVE IT. • DESIGN SOLUTION OPTIONS ALIGNED TO YOUR GOALS. • ENGAGE YOUR STAKEHOLDERS IN THE SOLUTION AND INFLUENCE THE DECISION-MAKING PROCESS. • ACT ON THE AGREED-UPON RECOMMENDATIONS AND EXECUTE YOUR GOVERNANCE MODEL. • SUSTAIN THE IMPLEMENTED SOLUTION BY CREATING A FEEDBACK LOOP. Treat this book as your field guide: it offers clear checkpoints for you to assist your organization in designing effective solutions for complex problems.

Recensioner i media

Eduardo and Erica have written a very practical guide for dealing with complex problems.Through their" IDEAS (Identify, Design, Engage, Act, Sustain) Framework" they have simplified the complex giving the reader a recipe for success. The concepts are brought to life through the case studies reflecting their own diverse experiences. This is a great field handbook for business leaders and consultants alike. The reader is given tools, processes and frameworks for addressing everyday business challenges. I am already taking some of their concepts and frameworks and integrating these into my practice.'' —Paul O Beirne, Principal, ORCA HR Solutions
