The Cynefin framework as revised. The Cynefin framework ( / kəˈnɛvɪn / kuh-NEV-in) [1] is a conceptual framework used to aid decision-making. [2] Created in 1999 by Dave Snowden when he worked for IBM Global Services, it has been described as a " sense-making device". [3] [4] Cynefin is a Welsh word for 'habitat'. [5]
The general group problem solving model ( GGPS model) is a problem solving methodology, in which a group of individuals will define the desired outcome, identify the gap between the current state and the target and generate ideas for closing the gap by brainstorming. The result is list of actions needed to achieve the desired results.
Vroom–Yetton decision model. The Vroom–Yetton contingency model is a situational leadership theory of industrial and organizational psychology developed by Victor Vroom, in collaboration with Philip Yetton (1973) and later with Arthur Jago (1988). The situational theory argues the best style of leadership is contingent to the situation.
Multiple-criteria decision-making ( MCDM) or multiple-criteria decision analysis ( MCDA) is a sub-discipline of operations research that explicitly evaluates multiple conflicting criteria in decision making (both in daily life and in settings such as business, government and medicine). It is also known as multiple attribute utility theory ...
The first step: list an object’s (or a problem’s) parts. The second step: uncouple the part from its known use. The classic example is to break a candle into wax and wick. Next, uncouple wick ...
Nominal group technique. The nominal group technique ( NGT) is a group process involving problem identification, solution generation, and decision-making. [1] It can be used in groups of many sizes, who want to make their decision quickly, as by a vote, but want everyone's opinions taken into account (as opposed to traditional voting, where ...
Problem solving is the process of achieving a goal by overcoming obstacles, a frequent part of most activities. Problems in need of solutions habit from simple personal tasks (e.g. how to turn on an appliance) to complex issues in business and technical fields. The former is an example of simple problem solving (SPS) addressing one issue ...
Poole's multiple sequence model is a communication theory approach developed by Marshall Scott Poole in 1983. [1] The model focuses on decision making processes in groups, and rejects other widely held communication theories in favor of less linear decision making processes. The multiple-sequence model suggests that group activity needs a ...
