How does the system help with prioritization?
The dilemma of many options
We live in a “multi-option society”. In everyday life and at work, we are surrounded by offers, new opportunities, technologies and options. We sometimes have up to 10 criteria when ordering a coffee. No wonder we find it difficult to make decisions and quickly become decision fatigue.
If we make the wrong choice of coffee, it’s no big deal. If we do this with fundamental things such as the choice of an IT platform, it has a major impact. Not making decisions and “keeping too many balls in the air at the same time” is not a good idea either.
Promoting the joy of decision-making
The Erfolgsucher system motivates all participants to make and prioritize decisions. It starts with questionnaires. There is no such thing as “neutral”.
The system also helps you to see not only the trees but also the forest in view of the wealth of options. All your priorities are always based on well-founded indicators and reports. That way, you are not forced to decide into the blue.
Example of prioritization in risk management
In this example, the system calculates dynamic risk traffic lights on the basis of numerous questionnaires. The system uses traffic light colors to alert you to potential pitfalls and displays the underlying indicators if necessary.
However, this does not mean that the system is right. Each participant is therefore asked to verify this:
- 1. prioritization: In this example, the system asks you which 3 risks (or fewer or none) are currently really relevant for you
- 2. prioritization: The system then asks you to prioritize the 3 risks you have identified according to hazard potential.
By the way:
In the real world, we often do the team prioritization in a workshop on a whiteboard or flipchart and use Post-It notes with sticky dots. Of course, this is also possible and it is outwardly loosening.
The Erfolgsucher system has the following prioritization advantages for you:
- All participants can prioritize – even those who are not in the workshop
- There are well-founded points of reference for decisions instead of just a gut feeling
- There is no “bias” because everyone prioritizes without knowing the others
- It can be prioritized in stages, which simplifies matters
- The evaluation, which is very complex for humans, makes the system live
