Raising issues with your leader or your team can be tough—too many ideas may overwhelm, confuse or burden them unnecessarily, or it might intimidate you. Russ Smidt from MTS created a tool to help you present problems to your leader or team effectively.

1. What's the issue? How do you get this down to a sentence
2. What's the options? why are options important?
3. What's your recommendation?
4. What's the concrete next step?

• How do you get the issue down to a sentence?
• Why are the options important?
• Why does it need to be a paper and not merely a conversation?
• The potential dangers
• Who needs to be one who writes it
• What is the difference between this and coaching tools?

Russ is the Director of Training with the Ministry Training Strategy
