Structured Approach to Problem Solving via Storyboarding


This PPT slide, part of the 28-slide Presentation Development Primer (Storyboarding, Slide Design) PowerPoint presentation, outlines a structured approach to problem-solving through a storyboard method, emphasizing the initial three steps of a six-phase process. The first step, "Define the problem," is crucial as it sets the foundation for the entire analysis. Clarity in defining the issue ensures that subsequent efforts are aligned with the core challenges faced. The second step, "Structure the problem," involves organizing the identified issues into a coherent framework. This structuring is vital for identifying relationships and prioritizing areas that require deeper investigation.

The third step, "Develop the analyses to test the issues," focuses on creating analytical frameworks that will be employed to validate or refute the assumptions made in the previous steps. This stage is about preparing the groundwork for effective data collection and analysis. The slide also points out a key insight: before any analysis begins, sufficient information must be gathered to construct a meaningful storyboard. This pre-analysis phase is often overlooked, but is essential for ensuring that the analysis is targeted and relevant.

The visual representation of these steps provides a clear roadmap for executives looking to implement a systematic approach to problem-solving. The mention of a partial preview suggests that the document contains further details and methodologies that can enhance understanding and application. For organizations seeking to refine their problem-solving capabilities, this slide serves as a valuable starting point, highlighting the importance of a structured methodology in achieving effective outcomes.
