Practical Guide to IT Problem Management

Practical Guide to IT Problem Management

Some IT organisations seem to expend all their energy firefighting – dealing with incidents as they arise and fixing or patching over the breakage. In organisations like this restarting computers is seen as a standard method to resolve many issues. Perhaps the best way to identify whether an organisation understands problem management is to ask what they do after they have restarted the computer. If restarting the computer fixes the issue it is very tempting to say that the incident is over and the job is done. Problem management recognises that things do not improve if such an approach is taken. Such organisations are essentially spending their time running to stay in the same place. Written to help IT organisations move forward Practical Guide to IT Problem Management presents a combination of methodologies including understanding timelines and failure modes drill down 5 whys and divide and conquer. The book also presents an exploration of complexity theory and how automation can assist in the desire to shift left both the complexity of the problem and who can resolve it. The book emphasises that establishing the root cause of a problem is not the end of the process as the resolution options need to be evaluated and then prioritised alongside other improvements. It also explores the role of problem boards and checklists as well as the relationship between problem management and Lean thinking. This practical guide provides both a framework for tackling problems and a toolbox from which to select the right methodology once the type of problem being faced has been identified. In addition to reactive methods it presents proactive activities designed to reduce the incidence of problems or to reduce their impact and complexity should they arise. Solving problems is often a combination of common sense and methodologies which may either be learnt the hard way or may be taught. This practical guide shows how to use problem solving tools and to understand how and when to apply them while upskilling IT staff and improving IT problem solving processes.

Thinking to Some Purpose

Thinking to Some Purpose

I am convinced of the urgent need for a democratic people to think clearly without the distortions due to unconscious bias and unrecognized ignorance. Our failures in thinking are in part due to faults which we could to some extent overcome were we to see clearly how these faults arise. It is the aim of this book to make a small effort in this direction. Susan Stebbing from the Preface Despite huge advances in education knowledge and communication it can often seem we are neither well-trained nor well practised in the art of clear thinking. Our powers of reasoning and argument are less confident that they should be we frequently ignore evidence and we are all too often swayed by rhetoric rather than reason. But what can you do to think and argue better? First published in 1939 but unavailable for many years Susan Stebbing's Thinking to Some Purpose is a classic first-aid manual of how to think clearly and remains astonishingly fresh and insightful. Written against a background of the rise of dictatorships and the collapse of democracy in Europe it is packed with useful tips and insights. Stebbing offers shrewd advice on how to think critically and clearly how to spot illogical statements and slipshod thinking and how to rely on reason rather than emotion. At a time when we are again faced with serious threats to democracy and freedom of thought Stebbing’s advice remains as urgent and important as ever. This Routledge edition of Thinking to Some Purpose includes a new Foreword by Nigel Warburton and a helpful Introduction by Peter West who places Susan Stebbing’s classic book in historical and philosophical context.
