Four Proven Critical Thinking Skills to Solve Problems and Making Better Decisions
CauseWise
To Find the Technical and Root Cause(s) of Incidents and Technical Problems
Separates the 'WHAT and HOW' from the 'WHY' it happened. A fix without the known cause is just a repeat incident waiting for its next occurrence.
SolutionWise
To Find the Best Solution for a Given Problem Situation
The 1st idea is not always the right one. Weigh solution requirements in terms of outcomes, costs and risks. The obvious answer is not always the best option available.
RiskWise
To Protect Future Actions and All Kinds of Decisions
Identify and fix 'BLIND SPOTS' before you go into 'production.' The best solutions mostly survive unforeseeable events coming around the corner.
These THINKING SKILLS work together in a synergistic way to deliver CLEAR THINKING in terms of REASONS, SOLUTIONS and RISKS to ensure everlasting and productive solutions.
