15. 1. Define Problem 2. Identify Objectives 2. Identify Objectives 3. Identify Solutions and Alternatives 3. Identify Solutions and Alternatives 4. Evaluate Consequences 4. Evaluate Consequences 5. Make Decision 6. Implement Decision 6. Implement Decision 7. Evaluate Decision 7. Evaluate Decision

16. Difference between Expected/Desired and Actual How the problem is defined determines causes and where to look for available solutions

17. Objectives are the desired outcomes Directly related to the defined problem Short-term is immediate and specific Long-term is persistent and broad Decision point within the system may affect identified objectives

18. Solutions/alternatives are directly influenced by prior steps Be open to new options No less than three (3) solutions Ideally all solutions should be identified Realistically, five (5) solutions should be considered

19. Identify positive and negative aspects of each solution/alternative Limit personal perceptions, biases, and predispositions Evaluate the probability of the desired result More facts means it is more likely the desired outcome will be realized

20. Steps one through four may be assessed differently based on stakeholder’s interest Interests may be competing with multiple stakeholders

21. Action itself is the first real tangible step toward the desired outcome.

22. Evaluation of the decision and outcome is the bridge to the next decision Focus should be on whether the desired outcome is realized Has the desired outcome changed or are there more options now, thus resulting in the need for the cycle to begin again?

23. Is the decision consistent with policies and procedures? Is the decision acceptable according to applicable laws and regulations? Does it conform to universal principles and values? EPIC is a good acronym to use for universal values: Empathy, Patience, Integrity, and Courage Does the decision meet my personal definition of right, good, and fair?
