How to Make Your Organization a Problem Solving Machine With Toyota's 8 step ...Frank Donohue
Organizations don't plan to fail, they just don't have a structured system for problem solving. In this presentation you will find out how to solve problems the way one of the most successful, admired, studied, and emulated companies in the history of commerce solves problems and continuously improves its business and enjoys major breakthroughs time and time again.
The document discusses problem solving skills and techniques. It describes the problem solving process as having five steps: 1) defining the problem, 2) finding possible solutions, 3) choosing the best solution, 4) implementing the solution, and 5) evaluating the solution. It also discusses common problem solving tools like brainstorming and the 5 Whys technique. Finally, it lists some reasons why people may fail to solve problems effectively, such as not being methodical or misinterpreting the problem.
The document discusses problem solving and provides an overview of the problem solving cycle. It defines a problem statement and discusses tools that can be used in problem solving such as brainstorming, data collection, benchmarking, working backwards, and evaluating ideas. The problem solving cycle involves defining the problem statement, collecting data, identifying causes and solutions, implementing solutions, and evaluating and adjusting the approach.
The document discusses problem solving techniques and processes. It defines a problem as a deviation from expected performance without a known cause. The goal of problem solving is to overcome obstacles, discover the real cause, and find the best solution. The key steps in the problem solving process are to (1) identify the real problem thoroughly, (2) determine the root cause, and (3) develop and implement an action plan to resolve the problem. Tools like mind mapping, affinity diagrams, and brainstorming can help with identifying solutions. The process repeats until the problem is fully solved.
To successfully run a brainstorming session, the document recommends setting objectives and goals, creating a relaxed environment, setting a positive tone, establishing guidelines for ideas, providing appropriate tools, having a trusted moderator, collecting ideas, and generating energy around the ideas.
This document provides an agenda for an analysis workshop. It includes:
- A pre-mortem exercise to imagine how a project could fail and identify risks (30 minutes).
- A "BAPSAP" problem solving technique where participants bring a problem and brainstorm solutions (25 minutes).
- A break (10 minutes).
- An exercise called "Once upon a time" where participants tell the story of a past project (20 minutes).
- Open discussion on participants' thoughts (5 minutes).
- Networking to conclude the event (20 minutes).
The document explains the purpose and process for each agenda item to provide analysis techniques and opportunities for discussion and problem solving.
Slide show on problem solving. The main idea is to combine problem solving tools and mind maps.
Focuses on the IDEAL problem solving tool and on ideas on tool mapping, where you use two mind maps at a time: one problem map for the actual problem, and one tool map with a collection of problem solving tools.
There is a video on YouTube based on this slideshow:

The document describes several techniques for problem solving:
Mind maps are useful for brainstorming ideas without judgment and seeing how ideas are related. Critical path analysis helps schedule projects by listing activities, their duration, and dependencies. PMI assigns positive and negative scores to options by considering pros, cons, and other factors. Fishhooking involves diverting attention before brainstorming ideas against success criteria. The 5 Whys technique asks "why" repeatedly to find a problem's root cause. CATWOE analyzes problems from different stakeholder perspectives including customers, actors, processes, world view, owners and constraints.

Collecting the right information through questions is important for fully understanding problems before attempting to solve them.
PDCA, which stands for Plan, Do, Check, Act/Adjust, has provided a structure for process improvement for decades. Originally created by Dr. W. Edwards Deming, PDCA is an easy-to-follow method that works in any industry and on any process. Tune in to our 1-hour introductory webinar to get a primer on how this model can help you in your quest to explore root causes, improve processes and get results!
A person's car breaks down on the side of the road while driving alone. They need to solve the problem of how to get to a planned meeting on time. Problem solving involves six key steps: defining the problem, gathering information, identifying solutions, evaluating alternatives, implementing a plan, and evaluating the results. Both problem solving and decision making require examining options, choosing the best option, and reviewing outcomes. The scientific method provides a structured approach through defining the problem, collecting data, proposing hypotheses, testing hypotheses, and drawing conclusions.

This document discusses different models of individual and organizational decision making. It describes the rational approach used for programmed decisions and bounded rationality perspective used for non-programmed decisions. For organizations, it outlines four models: the management science approach, Carnegie model, incremental decision process model, and garbage can model. The garbage can model is used for extremely organic environments characterized by problematic preferences, unclear technology, and turnover. Learning organizations combine incremental and Carnegie models or use the garbage can model. Special circumstances like high velocity environments and escalating commitment are also addressed.

This document discusses the process of managerial decision making. It describes how managers analyze opportunities and threats, set goals, and make choices about courses of action. There are two types of decisions: programmed decisions which are routine and follow established guidelines, and non-programmed decisions which deal with unusual situations and require intuition and judgment as there are no set rules. The process of decision making involves identifying problems, generating alternatives, evaluating options, making a choice, implementing it, and then evaluating results for feedback.
