1 Define the problem

The first step is to define the problem clearly and precisely. What is the goal, the desired outcome, or the expected result? What are the criteria, constraints, or requirements? What are the symptoms, indicators, or evidence of the problem? You can use questions, such as who, what, when, where, why, and how, to guide your problem definition. You can also use tools, such as problem statements, SMART goals, or fishbone diagrams, to structure your problem definition.

Es fundamental para el crecimiento personal y profesional. Esto se logra manteniéndote abierto y curioso, explorando nuevos temas y conectándote con personas de diversos campos. Al ampliar tu red y participar en actividades interdisciplinarias, te expones a perspectivas diferentes y descubres desafíos que podrían escapar de tu especialización actual. Además, al practicar el pensamiento crítico y mantenerse al tanto de las noticias y tendencias, puedes desarrollar una comprensión más amplia del mundo que te rodea, lo que te permite identificar problemas potenciales incluso cuando están fuera de tu área de experiencia inmediata. Es esencial estar dispuesto a aprender y colaborar con otros para abordar problemas complejos de manera efectiva.

2 Research the context

The second step is to research the context of the problem. What is the background, history, or origin of the problem? What are the relevant facts, data, or information? What are the key concepts, terms, or definitions? What are the current trends, issues, or developments? You can use sources, such as books, articles, reports, or experts, to gather your research. You can also use tools, such as SWOT analysis, PESTLE analysis, or Porter's five forces, to analyze your research.

Learning the origin story of anything is one of the best ways in my experience to learn anything new as understanding any problem requires an as-is analysis of the processes in any system/situation to help define the parameters you might need to learn or further understand

3 Identify the gaps

The third step is to identify the gaps in your knowledge, skills, or resources. What are the areas that you need to learn more about, practice more, or acquire more? What are the questions that you need to answer, the skills that you need to develop, or the resources that you need to access? You can use methods, such as self-assessment, feedback, or benchmarking, to identify your gaps. You can also use tools, such as gap analysis, learning plans, or action plans, to address your gaps.

4 Seek help

The fourth step is to seek help from others who have more expertise, experience, or insight in the problem area. Who are the people who can help you understand, solve, or improve the problem? How can you reach out to them, communicate with them, or collaborate with them? You can use strategies, such as networking, mentoring, or coaching, to seek help. You can also use tools, such as email templates, questionnaires, or surveys, to ask for help.

5 Evaluate solutions

The fifth step is to evaluate possible solutions to the problem. What are the alternatives, options, or choices that you have? What are the pros and cons, advantages and disadvantages, or benefits and costs of each solution? How do they align with the problem definition, the context research, and the gap identification? You can use criteria, such as feasibility, effectiveness, efficiency, or sustainability, to evaluate solutions. You can also use tools, such as decision matrices, cost-benefit analysis, or SWOT analysis, to compare solutions.

6 Implement and monitor

The final step is to implement and monitor the chosen solution. How will you execute, deliver, or apply the solution? What are the steps, actions, or tasks that you need to take? What are the resources, tools, or support that you need to use? How will you measure, track, or assess the results, outcomes, or impacts of the solution? You can use methods, such as project management, time management, or risk management, to implement the solution. You can also use tools, such as Gantt charts, checklists, or dashboards, to monitor the solution.

I’ve found the most effective way to uncover problems in the business is asking questions, being present, and genuinely curious about the business. Keeping your antenna up and tuned in to what you’re hearing. The other critical factor is to ensure you hear from multiple people across different layers of the business. Reflecting on your experience will expose connections and hopefully shine light on the problem. You also probably heard about a few ways of solving it. The extra benefit is that the team feels heard, which makes a huge impact on them.

To spot problems beyond what you know, keep an open mind, ask around, and get different viewpoints. Keep an eye out for weird trends or things that just don't add up. Team up with folks who know their stuff, dig into the topic, and use tech to fill in any blanks. Stay adaptable, humble, and eager to pick up new skills to tackle new problems head-on.
