- Working in the Oil and Gas for the Projects Department where Operations were basically our customers. They often posed this challenge, where there was an automatic "block" in Operations' mind that Projects was going to implement a project of bad quality. To change this situation and bring everyone together as one unit. I investigated with different individuals holding varying levels of position to understand where the problem stemmed and worked on these areas to fix and close the gap. This way Operations gained confidence and trust in Projects and company goals were achieved.

- Issue: Waking up at the sound of my alarm. It has become difficult to wake up once my alarm sounds. Why? I go to bed too late. So I am going to be mindful of the time that I am going to bed. Get to bed on time, eat well and exercise for better sleep. Remove all distractions (phones, TV) from around me when its time for bed. Keep note of the times I am going to bed, log & record the number of hours I slept. Review and monitor.
7
- Review the situation thoroughly to fully understand the problem/issue. Draw or map out the issue. Dissect the issue. Take a break and come back to it. Take a walk. Give yourself sometime to clear your mind. Identify a process or method to get rid of the problem. Implement the method, test, review, analyze and conclude.
