Some of these ideas are simple, some are complex, some are organized, and some are chaotic. It is almost certain that if you want to think and act efficiently, you must use a structural framework to organize many ideas in your brain, whether they are bright or dark-that is, think with a thinking framework.
How important is the thinking frame? The answer is very important, almost related to our decision-making, action, feedback and other aspects. Katsumi Kazuo, a former strategic consultant of McKinsey, explained that the thinking framework mainly has the following functions:
L improve the ability to predict the future
L exercise risk management ability
L ability to deal with emergencies
L the ability to live effectively
L the ability to act efficiently
So, what are the types of thinking frame force? According to the summary of the book Huawei Time Management Law, it mainly includes five types:
L systematic thinking: used to evaluate and define problems. The key point of implementation is to pay attention to the correlation between things and consider the problem from a global perspective.
L logical thinking: used to identify the causes, and find out the internal causes, driving factors and causal relationships of problems through structured analysis methods. This method is mainly used for focusing.
L innovative thinking: developing solutions requires innovative ability. You should break through the mindset and solve the problem in other ways.
L thinking ability of action: make an implementation plan, make executable tasks for your plan, and clarify the time schedule, relationship and responsible person of task execution.
L Learning thinking ability: mainly used to sum up experience afterwards, which requires more reflection, more summary and more records after practice.
The learning of each frame force must go through exploration, imitation, application, expression and optimization before it can be mastered gradually.
* * Defining questions is to systematically find gaps.
In the complex phenomenon, find the key to the problem, and you have completed half the task. Einstein famously said, "If I have one hour to save the world, I would like to spend 59 minutes to define the problem and one minute to find the solution."
And systematic thinking ability is the key to help you find the problem and the thinking tool to define the problem accurately.
The book Logical Thinking holds that defining a problem is to clarify the gap between reality and expectation, while a problem is the gap between reality and benchmarking, which is both a problem and an opportunity.
* * How to define the problem.
If you want to find a problem clearly and put it into practice, that is the operation of the problem. Usually, one of the methods we often use is to transform the problem from a divergent description to a convergent description:
For example, about how to keep an appointment solemnly, in fact, the problem can be divided into two parts
One is solemnity, and the other is keeping an appointment.
Solemnity is mainly reflected in appearance, appearance and dress, then the problem will be transformed into neatness of clothes and proper manners of speech.
Going to an appointment is mainly reflected in grasping the distance of the interview place and being familiar with the route.
Therefore, in fact, the problem of serious dating is about how to match clothes, how to find familiar routes, and how to be familiar with distance. How to travel long distances without changing your makeup?
Only by turning the problem into a convergence problem can we think for ourselves, find the reasons and get targeted answers.
Logical thinking can be linear, circular, jumping, total score, etc. But you must sort out the problems you encounter according to certain rules.
People's common sorting method is to sort by importance. Only by concentrating on solving the main contradictions can the laws of problems appear and even create their mutual laws.
In order to really solve the problem, we need to abandon some details and start from some important aspects. Just like that solemn date.
The goal is to keep the appointment solemnly, but the present situation is not serious. I haven't kept the appointment yet.
L Among them, the problem of solemnity accounts for 50%, the problem of keeping the contract accounts for 30%, and other problems account for 20%. Give it up.
L in serious problems, appearance may account for 80%, personal accomplishment accounts for 20%, and that thing can't be repaired for the time being, so I gave up.
L In keeping the promise, 80% may be a matter of time, while other gifts and emotional issues each account for 10%. Give it up.
So the remaining 70% of the dressing and makeup problems and 70% of the wiring problems are not to say that other problems can be ignored, but that the focus of the problem is these aspects. Grasping these key points is conducive to efficient thinking, action and problem solving.
Regarding innovative thinking, it is actually not the result created by inspiration alone. Any good innovation has rules to follow. Let's not talk about it today, just mention one thing: innovation should ensure innovation, pay attention to cost, and pay attention to direction and scheme selection.
4. Thoughts on the implementation of planned actions
Action thinking ability can be mainly regarded as structured work decomposition, time planning and utilization, process implementation and control in the process of action.
Commonly used tools are Gantt Chart and Milestones. These two tools can ensure the orderly development of the work, which is very beneficial to the evaluation process and the control of time nodes.
5. Evaluation results of learning thinking.
Many enterprises usually like to use AAR to study and reflect on projects that have ended.
AAR(after action review), also known as after-the-fact learning mechanism, after-the-fact reflection mechanism and after-the-fact review, is one of the most widely used tools in knowledge management practice. The implementation steps are as follows:
Step 1: What was the initial action intention? -don't forget your active mind, so as to achieve your ultimate goal-original intention, purpose and goal preset.
Step 2: What happened? -What the hell happened? Why? How did it happen?
Step 3: What did you learn from it? -What have you learned?
Step 4: How to turn learning into action? -What should I do next? What can we do directly?
Step 5: Take action-knowledge exists in action, and some changes must be made before it can be called learning.
Step 6: Share with others-effectively transfer useful knowledge to others.
