The objectives tree
Now it’s time to turn your problem tree into something constructive: the objectives tree. This simply means that you start at the top row of your problem tree, and rephrase every card in a positive statement or a solution.
- As before, sometimes you may need to rephrase the objective or clarify it.
- You also have to check the cause-and-effect relationships. If problem A causes problem B, does solution A also lead to the solution of B?
- Remove objectives that are not realistic.
- Sometimes it is necessary to add (intermediary) objectives.
