Description
The Problem Solving: Generating Alternatives course is the third course of the Decision-making and Problem-solving for Business series and focuses on the following topics: Getting into the flowSay, as a farmer, you're having troubles optimizing your crop yield. If you don't have an effective solution-generating mind-set, your entire operation will likely get plowed under. Being rationalTo tackle your yield problem, you'll need to put rational problem-solving techniques to use. You'll have to think about your alternatives in a realistic, down-to-earth way. Being creativeAt the same time, some farming problems require creative thinking. For example, bugs and pests don't give up easily. Have you ever thought about the world from a critter's point of view? That's what creative agricultural scientists do all the time. Breaking out of rutsLastly, thin harvests translate into acres and acres of stress. Unless you take measures to reduce that frustration, you may wind up losing the problem-solving farm. You're about to discover how to imagine and manifest far-reaching solutions to your business problems. There's nothing ephemeral about the ideas contained here. To the contrary, the techniques you'll explore are deeply rooted in tangible reality-and in results. In this course, you'll learn how to effectively generate alternative solutions by: getting into the flow, taking rational approaches, using creative approaches, and getting out of problem-solving ruts. That's it! Now, go ahead and push that "Take this course" button and see you on the inside!
