Instructions for the Problem statement to be identified.
Comment on 3 specific decision tools (choose tools rather than processes such as McMasters, the problem solving steps, etc) that you have encountered in this course that contribute to decision making through one or more of the following:
1. Decision analysis
2. Reducing uncertainty
3. Risk analysis
Need a new problem statement or revised one for the next papers.
Explain how the 3 tools you've chosen might support improved decision making, providing examples. You must include appropriate details/examples that relate to the use of the tools.
Illustrate how one cognitive mapping tool from the article in this module would enhance the decision process for either one of your examples or the problem you posed in this week's discussion. Provide the diagram/map of your work. You may construct your own chart to fill in or use one of the free mind mapping tools available online. You'll need to paste your final result into your Word document.
Determine alternative courses of action (for business problem statement)
TOPIC
Read the text and view PowerPoint Ch. 2 related to the Strategy text.
1. Build alternative courses of action for your business problem statement and objectives from last week's discussion posting. You may change your scenario.
2. Start by copying your BRIEF problem statement and objective - summarize! This content does not count for your length objective.
1. Watch Video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQxlIJQCxJo
2. Go to https://www.triz-journal.com/ for information on TRIZ.
3. Go to https://triz40.com/TRIZ_GB.php formatrix and principles.
First, watch the video. It walks you through how to use the TRIZ matrix. You may use the scenario from last week or you may choose a new problem. Keep in mind that TRIZ works best with complex problems. If alternatives are easily generated, then a fancy tool is of little use!
