Structured Approach to Building Decision Trees PPT

This PPT slide, part of the 23-slide Brainstorming for Consultants PowerPoint presentation, outlines a structured approach to building a decision tree, emphasizing its importance in the brainstorming process. It is divided into 3 main sections: the step itself, the process, and the significance of the method.

The "Step" section clearly states the objective: to build a decision tree. This is foundational for effective problem-solving and decision-making. The "Process" section is the core of the slide, detailing a three-step methodology. First, it suggests splitting key questions into sub-questions or drivers in a logical manner. This is crucial as it helps to break down complex issues into manageable parts. The second step involves further dividing these sub-questions into their respective drivers, ensuring a deeper analysis of each component. Lastly, the process encourages continuing the analysis until the key drivers are prioritized. This iterative approach is vital for clarity and focus.

The "Significance" section highlights the rationale behind this structured method. It notes that using the term "drivers" ensures that all ideas generated during brainstorming are relevant to the issue at hand. This prevents the team from veering off-topic, which can lead to wasted time and resources. It also emphasizes the importance of maintaining a clear path in the analysis, ensuring that the team remains aligned with the objectives of the brainstorming session.

Overall, this slide serves as a practical guide for executives looking to enhance their decision-making processes through structured brainstorming techniques.
