Tools come in all shapes, sizes, and colors.
You may have different terms for variations on techniques. The
ones we present are by no means an exhaustive list. We selected
these tools based on the experience and input from our
contributors. Management books, coursework, and the following
manuals provide extensive lists of useful tools. Many of these
sources contain excellent work which you will find useful. (See
our bibliography.) Happy hunting!
You can also:
- Look around.--Become aware of tools and look for tools
others are using. Look at research, comparison, and idea generating
methods in other studies. Ask consultants, trainers, coworkers,
and others what tools they found effective and could recommend.
Glance through management books, how-to books, etc.
- Create and adapt.--Play with
tools. Think about what your particular situation needs and
tinker with available tools to meet your needs. Contour the
application to your needs and purpose. Caution: make sure that
the tool is applied consistently!
