Recycling or Recovery has been in vogue for the last two or three decades as a means to save the environment and many organizations, communities and countries have embraced it as priority

But is this enough ? How do Repairs / Refurbish or Reuse / Repurpose compare with recycling /recovery?

This becomes one step before and can be prevent large quantities of materials going to the final destination i.e. the landfill.

The ‘Fix it’ process is nothing new. This is how we started off during the industrial revolution, but over time “use and throw” became the norm.

Now, we have acute problems of environment and global warming and we realize that repairs and maintenance can be a very useful step in the circular economy chain which will prevent help achieve the goal of zero waste.

In the coming years, the ‘Fix it’ economy can be become substantially large, considering that many of the advanced countries so far did not give it the needed priority and moved to a product development strategy focused on quicker obsolescence and hard to repair options.

The developing nations imbibed the repair and maintenance processes more easily due to economics, purchasing power and to some extent culture and a way of life.

Activities involving Repairing / Refurbishing and Reusing / Re-purposing are all examples of projects. Timeline, risk or uncertainty of success and scoping are variable in individual cases and become candidates where project management can be gainfully deployed.

We have all faced the challenge before. We’ve been asked to solve a problem. Sometimes, the request is to actually implement a specific solution. Months of work and thousands of dollars of investment later, however, things don’t get any better.

All too often, the problem that presents itself at the outset of a project isn’t the real problem at all.

It might be a symptom of the problem. It may be proxy for the the real problem. At times, what we think we are doing is only tangentially related to the real work that needs to be done.

Digging out root causes is a skillset that matters. Taking the time to explore a problem before moving on to a solution is a vital capability. Figuring out what the actual problem is—and not what is described or perceived—is essential to ultimate success.

In this webinar, Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management provides essential insights into how to explore and evaluate problems, how to identify and explore causal relationships, and how to do the necessary but difficult work of getting to root causes.

If problem solving is essential to your role—and when it isn’t it?—this is a webinar that you won’t want to miss.
