Two Fundamental Thinking Modes
Based on the research and book “Thinking, Fast and Slow” by the Nobel-prize winning psychologist Daniel Kahneman the brain has two fundamental thinking modes:
System 1: “Automatic System” informed by knowledge and experience
System 2: “Effortful System” used to consciously think through an issue in a systematic way
Which mode do you typically use?

When to use each approach
System 1 is best to use:
The issue is simple
I have seen an issue like this many times before
The cost of being wrong is low and the consequences are acceptable
System 2 is best to use:
The issue is complex
I have not seen an issue like this before
The cost of being wrong is high and the consequences unacceptable
Time for repeated System 1 thinking is over
Number of trial fixes, people involved or elapsed time

Problem Management
Purpose:
Eliminate recurring incidents and minimize the effect of incidents that cannot be eliminated
Objective:
Prevent problems and related incidents from happening
Eliminate recurring incidents
Minimize the impact of incidents that cannot be prevented

Problem Management
Goal:
Diagnose the root cause of incidents and the resolution to the problem
Ensure that the resolution is implemented through the appropriate control processes (change and release management)
Maintain information about problems and workarounds
Interface with knowledge management

Problem Management Challenges
Understand the difference between Incident Management & Problem Management
Fixing the issue permanently is typically a task for problem management.
Management needs to prioritize Problem Management activities, not each analyst/technician.
Business justification is necessary for prioritizing problems

Problem Management Techniques
Brainstorming
The most common type of problem analysis
Relevant experts meet together (physically or virtually)
Identify their ideas on the potential cause of the problem
Sessions can be very constructive
Sessions can also be time consuming.
Sessions should be structured with a moderator
–
Documents the session
–
Identifies actions

Problem Management Techniques
Pain Value Analysis
•
This analysis is used when attempting to understand the impact of incident(s)/problem(s) on the business. E.g., an analysis is performed to understand the level of pain caused by the incidents/problems. It is possible to design a formula to measure the level of pain (thus assisting prioritization) using variables:
Number of users affected
Length of downtime
Timing of the downtime
Cost to the business (user time, lost sales, penalties, etc.)
•
The investigation may also turn up information helpful to the diagnosis , assessment and ultimate correction of the problem as well.

Problem Management Techniques
Chronological Analysis
Builds a timeline of what happened when (from event and/or incident data). The timeline can then be used to identify cause and effect events and validate assumptions not supported by the events. The expanded incident lifecycle can assist in developing the chronological analysis.

Ishikawa
A graphical technique that helps identify all possible causes of an effect, such as a problem. This technique was developed by Kaoru Ishikawa and is often called an Ishikawa diagram. Because the final output often looks like a fish, it is also sometimes called a “fishbone” diagram. It is also referred to as a Cause and Effect diagram.

Pareto Analysis
A statistical approach to problem solving that is oriented to
focusing on the potential issues causing the greatest effect.
1. Build a table showing potential causes
2. Sort the rows by importance (descending)
3. Plot causes (X axis) and Cumulative % (Y axis) and draw line connecting
the points (curve)
4. Plot bar graph with causes on X axis
5. Draw line @ 80% of Y axis (parallel to X axis)
6. Where line & curve intersect drop line to X axis
7. Important causes to the left, trivial to the right

Kepner-Tregoe (KT) Analysis (http://www.tregoe.org)
This is a rational modelthat is well respected in business management circles. An important aspect of Kepner Tregoe decision making is the assessment and prioritizing of risk.
KT is not to find a perfect solution but rather the best possible choice, based on actually achieving the outcome with minimal negative consequences.
There are four basic steps when decision making Kepner Tregoe style:
Situation appraisal -is used to clarify the situation, outline concerns and choose a direction
Problem analysis -here the problem is defined and it's root cause determined
Decision analysis -alternatives are identified and a risk analysis done for each
Potential problem analysis -the best of the alternatives is further scrutinized against potential problems and negative consequences and actions are proposed to minimize the risk.
