The document outlines six steps to deal with complex problems: 1) Know your motives and acknowledge the complexity, 2) Define the problem, 3) Go deeper into the underlying issues, 4) Decompose the problem into smaller components and involve others, 5) Generate and evaluate potential solutions, and 6) Implement plans, check results, and be ready to address new complexities. It emphasizes moving from control to influence, plan to learn, and predict to understand complex issues. The process involves questioning assumptions, analyzing root causes, simplifying problems, considering multiple perspectives, and being willing to try new approaches.

Problem Solving and Decision Making
Components of a problem

What is Groupthink?
Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon that may cause a failure of a group’s performance. This is a trap that any previously successful group may get in.
The "groupthink" term was proposed by social psychologist Irving Janis (1972). It occurs when a group makes faulty decisions because group pressures lead to a deterioration of “mental efficiency, reality testing, and moral judgment” (p. 9). The alternatives are ignored and irrational actions dehumanize other groups. A group is especially vulnerable to groupthink when its members are similar in background, when the group is insulated from outside opinions, and when there are no clear rules for decision making.

Janis, Irving L. (1982). Groupthink: Psychological Studies of Policy Decisions and Fiascoes. Second Edition. New York: Houghton Mifflin. Symptoms of Groupthink
There are eight symptoms of groupthink:
· Illusion of invulnerability –Creates excessive optimism that encourages taking extreme risks.
· Collective rationalization – Members discount warnings and do not reconsider their assumptions.
· Belief in inherent morality – Members believe in the rightness of their cause and therefore ignore the ethical or moral consequences of their decisions.
· Stereotyped views of out-groups – Negative views of the “enemy” make effective responses to conflict seem unnecessary.
· Direct pressure on dissenters – Members are under pressure not to express arguments against any of the group’s views.
· Self-censorship – Doubts and deviations from the perceived group consensus are not expressed.
· Illusion of unanimity – The majority view and judgments are assumed to be unanimous.
· Self-appointed ‘mindguards’ – Members protect the group and the leader from information that is problematic or contradictory to the group’s cohesiveness, view, and/or decisions.
Remedies for Groupthink
Decision experts have determined that groupthink may be prevented by adopting some of the following measures:
1. The leader should assign the role of critical evaluator to each member
2. The leader should avoid stating preferences and expectations at the outset
3. Each member of the group should routinely discuss the group's deliberations with a trusted associate and report back to the group on the associate's reactions
4. One or more experts should be invited to each meeting on a staggered basis. The outside experts should be encouraged to challenge views of the members.
5. At least one articulate and knowledgeable member should be given the role of devi ...

Exploring Career Paths in Cybersecurity for Technical CommunicatorsBen Woelk, CISSP, CPTC
Brief overview of career options in cybersecurity for technical communicators. Includes discussion of my career path, certification options, NICE and NIST resources.
2. Problem
Any situation or matter that involves doubt,
uncertainty, difficulty and need attention to be
solved or discussed
Complexity
Something that is difficult to understand means
lack simplicity, leads to complexity
3. “To Solve any problem, here are three
questions to ask yourself: First, What could I
do? Second, what could I read? And third,
Who could I ask?”
4. Manage the Complexity
From Predict to Understand
From Control to Influence
From Plan to Learn
“There is time in the life of problem when it is
big enough to see, yet small enough to solve”
5. Steps to Deal with Problem
1- Know Your Motives
Asking WHY helps us to go deeper into our
reasoning and unconscious beliefs
Acknowledge the complexity
Recognizing the problem
6. 2- Define the Problem (What is the problem?)
Create a focusing Statement
What is the desired problem and what is the
desired outcome
Analyze
Collecting the correct concerning information
Investigating the real facts and causes
“The real problem may not be what you initially
think the problem is”
7.
8. 3- Go Deeper into the Issue
Identify the underlying issue
Mental Modeling that is drawing the problem out
of your mind
Understanding the problem
9. 4- Problem Decomposition
Breakdown into smaller components
Involve all the right people who can help
“Complex things can be simplified in a way that
makes them easier to understand”
10. 4- Converge and Diverge Ideation (What is the solution
to this problem?)
Design a solution search strategy
“The first solution is not necessarily the best one and a
few alternatives should be considered”
Diverge is throwing in every possible solution
Converge is the opposite that is removing options
according to whether they’re impractical, improper
11. 5- Translate Plans to Actions
Selection of the appropriate solution
Prioritize the work
Implement plan
Check the results/Assess the effectiveness
Compromise with the change
12. 6- Try Again
Ready to deal with the next complexity
Draw the Behavior time graph
Structured information
Cope with the problem/Try to minimize the
problem
13. Questions to ask
“What would solve the problem?”
“What strategy could resolve the root cause?”
“What solutions have already been thought of?”
“What approaches haven’t been thought of?”
“How could we stop this situation from recurring?”
“What different methods might work?”
“What crazy ideas might help?”
