Problem Formulation and Identification
Problem formulation and identification is an important part of any organization due to the limitless amount of problems that can transpire. By having a proper plan of action to help identify problems, an organization can quickly implement the needed procedures to alleviate it whether it is personnel or resources. The organization I represent, Shannon Missionary Baptist Church, is linked to another other organization that can have problems to arise at any given time and problem formulation and identification methods are as crucial in church as with any other organization. We have formulated a method of problem identification internally and try and use our handbook, the Bible, to the letter. Our handbook offers unswerving directions on how every member of the organization is to carry out his or her services, the organizations purpose and goals, the rules and regulations, and also the behavior of the organization and its members. When any member of the organization notices a problem or issue, it is his or her responsibility to report that problem to other members so that a meeting can be held to handle it swiftly. Our organization handles all problems openly, with all its members, allowing each individual to express their concerns about the problem and then a vote is made. The decision of what action to take to deal with the problem is decided by the majority vote.
