Generate a second workable option

Your first plan is unavailable or does not fit.

Everyday practice

Try these steps

  1. Name the result you need and the constraints that matter.
  2. Generate another way to reach that result, changing one element such as timing, method, or support.
  3. Compare the options and choose based on fit rather than novelty.

An example

If the group cannot meet in person, we can exchange written comments on the draft.

Reflect

Did the second option meet the essential need?

Next time

Keep useful alternatives for similar disruptions.
