The Eight Disciplines of Problem Solving

1. Form a team: Gather individuals with the necessary expertise and knowledge to tackle the problem at hand. Collaboration is key to ensure a holistic and diverse perspective.
2. Define the problem: Clearly articulate the problem and its impact on the organization or individual. This step sets the foundation for the entire problem-solving process.
3. Containment actions: Take immediate actions to mitigate the problem and prevent further damage or negative consequences.
4. Root cause analysis: Identify the underlying causes of the problem. This step requires thorough investigation and analysis.
5. Develop corrective actions: Design solutions to address the root causes of the problem. These actions should be specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound.
6. Implement and verify corrective actions: Put the planned solutions into action and monitor their effectiveness. This step requires ongoing evaluation and adjustment.
7. Prevent recurrence: Develop preventive measures to ensure that the problem does not reoccur in the future. This may involve process improvements or changes in policies.
8. Congratulate the team: Celebrate the successful resolution of the problem and recognize the efforts of the team members involved.
