Potential Resolutions
For those identified problems/issues with many causes and effects, there are potentially many solutions, each with its own set of advantages and disadvantages. The solutions may impact just one of the effects or may impact several effects. The goal this week is to generate as many solutions as possible based on the critical analysis of the problem created earlier. At this stage, don’t worry about whether the solution is effective. Simply generate as many potential solutions as you can. Once you have generated a list, select two potential resolutions and identify the advantages and disadvantages of each solution. You will share these with your peers; pay particular attention to their responses about which solution might work best in alleviating the problem/issue you selected.
To prepare:
- Review the “Problem Solving Template,” located in the Resources area on the left navigation bar.
- Review the causes and effects that you generated in Week 6.
- Review the critical analysis narrative that you prepared in Week 7.
- Think about some potential resolutions to your identified problem and the advantages and disadvantages of each.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 4 two potential resolutions to the identified problem/issue and explain their advantages and disadvantages. Provide specific examples.
