1. Challenge: Describe your challenge, including all relevant information.

Choosing between 2 equally good job opportunities. Offers are both high positions and competitive  salary.

2. Selection: In your own words, briefly describe the tool you selected (e.g., what it is and why you

selected it for your challenge -- including any appropriate video lecture references).

Storytelling – I chose this as this will help me consider all the possibilities I haven’t seen yet through  the point of view of persons I tell the story to.

3. Application: Describe how you applied the tool you selected to your challenge (e.g., what you did

and how the tool was applied effectively or ineffectively).

I considered all the pros and cons, not only the salary but also other benefits, company’s stability,  work environment through telling the sitution to the people I trust. I also laid out all the other whys  and what ifs in my decision and asked how they will respond if they are in my shoes.

4. Insight: Describe the insight you gained from applying the tool you selected to your challenge (e.g.,

how an insight affected your thinking about the challenge and about design thinking more broadly).

We must always have a clear mind and consider all possibilities to ensure a sound decision making.  It would really help to have a certain type of approach for challenges faced.

5. Approach: Describe what you might do differently next time -- applying the same tool you selected

or a different one -- and the reason(s) why.

This tool always works for me. However, I may also try visualization in which I can illustrate the  things need to be considered.
