Lesson 5: Working in teams<\/h2>\n

Effective Team Decision-Making Process<\/h3>\n

Teams are particularly effective in problem solving as they are comprised of people with complementary skills. These complementary skills allow team members to examine issues from various angles, as well as see the implications of their decisions from a variety of perspectives.<\/h5>\n
In this section we will look at a process that can help teams solve problems and make ‘good’ decisions.<\/h5>\n
In essence, teams make decisions using problem solving techniques. Thus, the process largely rests on the selection of a course of action following the evaluation of two or more alternatives.<\/h5>\n

\u00a0\t\t<\/p>\n

To effectively navigate this path, the following step-by-step approach can be used.
\n<\/h3>\n
\n\n\t\t\t\t\t Recognize the problem
\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n
Teams must see and recognize that a problem exists and that a decision needs to be made to move forward. While on its face this step appears elementary, many teams do not always recognize that there is an issue that needs to be addressed due to issues such as group think<\/h5>\n<\/details>\n
\n\n\t\t\t\t\t Define the problem
\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n
In this stage, teams must map out the issue at hand. During this step, teams should: \u2022 State how, when, and where members became aware of the problem \u2022 Explore different ways of viewing the problem — different ways of viewing the \u2022 problem can lead to an improved understanding of the ‘core’ problem \u2022 Challenge any assumptions that are made about the problem to ensure that the team fully sees the ‘real’ issue at hand<\/h5>\n<\/details>\n
\n\n\t\t\t\t\t Gather information
\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n
Once the problem has been defined, teams need to gather information relevant to the problem. Why do teams need to perform this step? Two reasons: to verify that the problem was defined correctly in step 2; and to develop alternative solutions to the problem at hand<\/h5>\n

\u00a0
\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n

\n\n\t\t\t\t\t Select the BEST alternative.
\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n
Once all the alternatives are in, the team needs to determine the alternative that best addresses the problem at hand. For this element to be effective, you need to consider both rational and human elements<\/h5>\n

\u00a0
\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n

\n\n\t\t\t\t\t Develop Alternative Solutions
\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n
While it can be easy for teams to ‘jump on’ and accept the first solution, teams that are effective in problem solving take the time to explore several potential solutions to the problem<\/h5>\n
Some ways to generate alternatives include:\u00a0<\/h5>\n
    \n
  • \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBrainstorming\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
    During this process teams are encouraged to come up with as many ways as possible to solve the problem at hand. While brainstorming can help generate creative solutions to problems, a few guidelines are needed to help it works most effectively. no criticism of any ideas during the brainstorming phase.<\/h5>\n
    \u2022all ideas, no matter how silly, get recorded.<\/h5>\n
    \u2022get past the sillies – sometimes very creative, and viable, solutions come after.<\/h5>\n
    \u2022people have made what appear to be ‘silly’ suggestions.<\/h5>\n
      \n
    • \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
      \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAsk Questions. :\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      Network with colleagues internal and external to the organization to get their ideas and suggestions.<\/h5>\n
        \n
      • \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>
        \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExplore\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        Read journals\/books, go to networking functions, and attend conferences etc. that cover similar issues. Also be prepared to go outside of the healthcare domain. Other industries may have faced similar issues and their solutions can provide insights for you<\/h5>\n<\/details>\n
