Helping Clients Engineer Solutions to the Problem Confronting Them
SOLUTION ENGINEERING
| PROBLEM DEFINED You are confronted with a problem when action is required but the appropriate action is not immediately apparent. Consequently, you must figure out what to do. Hence the two phases of Solution Engineering: (1) Investigation in order to determine the appropriate course of action and then (2) Intervention in order to carry it out. SOLUTION ENGINEERING Solution Engineering is a comprehensive approach to solving problems in the workplace. It emerged and has been refined over the course of more than 50 years of solving a wide variety of problems in the workplace. The figure above depicts the "bases" that must be covered in the course of solving any workplace problem. The articles listed below present a mix of concepts, models, and practical applications, including lots of illustrative examples drawn from personal experience. I've written an open letter to CEOs describing a couple of "Big WIns" realized through Solution Engineering. To access it, click here. I am available to answer questions, make presentations, conduct training and provide consulting and coaching services in applying the Solution Engineering Process.
