Allows for prioritization beyond the RICE model. Great for project management and planning. Used in Change Management processes. Should be used with the relationship matrix for improved results.
I recommend to use a scale of 1-3 to score each category.
Note: Effort = money and time
Lets propose you have 4 root causes:
1. Performance management is a power trip by supervisors and doesn't always reflect reality
2. Staff don't feel powered and are underutilized need a new project/team based way of working
3. Administrative staff feel they only push paper
4. Hierarchies have created a toxic work environment so need horizontal structures when possible
Score each of these against the columns provided. This is a subjective score and that is OK.
REACH = does it affect everyone or a small group?
IMPACT =is it the main cause of the problem?
CONFIDENCE = How confident to solve it?
CONTROL = is it in our hands to solve it?
RELEVANCE = is it really important to people/staff. How is it perceived?
EFFORT: How is it ranked in time and money to solve it (1-3)?
USE THIS FORMULA TO REACH A SCORE FOR EACH ROOT CAUSE.
Reach x Impact x Confidence x Control x Relevance / Effort
The highest score indicates the highest priority.
