MPM Blog Using the Impact/Difficulty Matrix for Problem Solving

You have all these solutions. How do you determine which solution/solutions to go after first?This is where you use another tool, Impact/Difficulty Matrix.1. Go through each solution & plot it on this matrix according to whether the impact on the business (or area) would be low or high (horizontal scale) & whether the level of difficulty to implement the improvements would be high or low (vertical scale).2. Now you have a list of improvements that you can prioritize:Quadrant 1: High difficulty/low impact - Forget it,Quadrant 2: High difficulty/high impact - MaybeQuadrant 3: Low difficult/low impact - Low priority but could be worthwhileQuadrant 4: Low difficulty/High impact - Go for it.
