Situation Analysis: Getting To The Heart Of Complex Problems

What is Situation Analysis?

Situation Analysis uses powerful critical thinking principles to break down complex issues and problems into manageable pieces, focus on the correct priorities, and create lasting solutions. You will learn the key principles that drive effective problem solving. You’ll also learn how to sidestep forces that move you away from rational thinking:

  • Poor understanding of the true situation
  • Unchecked facts packaged to look authentic
  • Data manipulated to lead us to predetermined conclusions
  • Constant rush to judgement about virtually every topic or position
  • Our own biases, which are often deeply hidden in the way we think

Situation Analysis helps you fully understand the bigger picture behind any complex issue or problem through a clear and objective lens. The resulting actions will be based on facts and logic, not opinions.

Situation Analysis is part of the Decision Focus Course Suite

Situation Analysis is one of three Decision Focus courses that equip you with powerful tools to solve complex problems, make smart decisions, and proactively get more accomplished by preventing problems before they occur. By purchasing the entire course suite, you get three courses for the price of two!
