What Is Issue Framing?

Apply issue framing deliberately to the situations in which that capability is relevant, with attention to the decisions, behaviours, or outputs that issue framing directly affects.

Why Does Issue Framing Matter?

Issue Framing matters when the outcome depends on doing more than the broad task itself; the specific capability described by issue framing can determine how accurately, clearly, efficiently, or appropriately the work is carried out.

What Does It Look Like?

Someone applying issue framing may:

  • uses issue framing deliberately rather than treating it as an automatic habit
  • checks the part of the result most affected by issue framing
  • adjusts the approach when the situation changes what issue framing requires

How to Develop Issue Framing

You can develop it by:

  • choose a real task where issue framing is clearly involved and define the result you want to improve
  • observe how a more experienced person handles issue framing and record the specific decisions they make
  • review one completed task and identify where stronger issue framing would have changed the result
