Question

Mine:

1. Think

3. Plan
4. Execute

Serhii Uspenskyi · Accepted Answer

1. Find a problem
2. Analyze why it happened
3. Discuss variants of solving
4. Test variant X of solving
5. If you fail, try 4 again until you solve. 
6. If you tried all in 4, move to 3
7. If you can't find any 3, ask others to help.

@serhii_uspenskyi I like the "discuss variants part" I have begun doing more of that. It works! And also I like that you have 7 steps. Solving things usually consists of many steps back and forth and sideways 😸

@nevemind_com Whenever I see the result of my delegation, I feel I could do better my self. 🤦 I give up 😂

André J · Answer

@nevemind_com That's why I dont delegate, I pingpong. I do a stab, then give it to a team member, then they do a stab. Then we send it out for feedback. Then we do some more stabbing. It's like async team work I suppose. 🔪😬
