 To predict and prevent, deal with threats or disruptions that organizations face, problem prevention is a multidisciplinary management discipline by setting good principles, guidelines, and procedures.

Things are complex, people are complex, businesses are complex, and the world we co-shared is complex. There are unknown interactions and very high inner dynamics in multitude of complexity. As a matter of fact, uncertainties are a common occurrence in any walk of our progress. We cannot predict anything beforehand but can imagine with many experiences involved in the current or in the past. 

Preventing problems requires information accuracy, processes effectiveness, knowledge fluency, well-trained intuition to analyze and predict the possibility of a problem for overcoming challenges and keep improving problem-solving competency.

Preventing a serious problem from happening is superior to fixing it: Assuming the risk is highly likely to occur; in order to prevent dangerous problems from happening, it’s important to harness leadership, enhance information-based decision-making, cultivate an open culture, collect quality feedback from others on what they believe the problem to be, or be prepared to hear something you might not like or agree with, for increasing digital awareness and prevent risks smoothly.

Information is the most invaluable asset, applying the real time analysis model to predict the potential risks and prevent or manage them smoothly is a scientific discipline to handle challenges. Preventing problems, managing risks require the power of information, leadership support, and integrating information-based insight into the business processes for identifying, assessing, preventing risks, and resolving problems structurally.

Avoid repeating problems happening from the past: In today’s digital dynamic, every situation has choices, risks; every circumstance has known unknown and unknown unknowns. The prediction of the future is based on the analysis of the past to help step into uncertainty confidently. To avoid repeating issues, imagine with many experiences involved in the current or in the past; learn from the past problems or challenges along with encouraging others to learn from the problems that have happened before.

If people no longer make a reference about the past, then they are likely to repeat mistakes of the past. Great problem preventers know the information, then see what it predicts. It’s all in what you do with the information that ultimately matters. They can re-introduce the past in a new way and build the bridge to effectively connect lesson-learned from the past to the future. They also understand how to influence the emotions of people and instill positive psychology, so people won’t create new problems, and also avoid repeating problems happening from the past.

Sense and deal with problems in their smallest state before they become the big hassle of the day: Business leaders and professionals today need to see further than what all others see; understand issues from broader perspectives and new angles. To prevent risks, it’s about applying quality data to forecast what will happen; what you should do upon it, to prevent problems from happening.

There is interconnectivity and many potential options in a complex system, a small effect in one place can cause a cascade of events that generate significant impact. Simplifying complicated things is an optimal choice for preventing problems or errors. The quality of your data and process defines the quality of your prediction, sense of surroundings, as well as the effectiveness of problem prevention.

To predict and prevent, deal with threats or disruptions that organizations face, problem prevention is a multidisciplinary management discipline by setting good principles, guidelines, and procedures. Business leaders and professionals should play a significant role in building a proactive problem prevention capability and developing the logical problem-solving scenario.
