Incredible,

According to Peter F. Drucker*, the point is not to solve problems quickly but to take the right decision (not bad !) and overall to concentrate on what is important.
Here are the sequential steps that will help you make effective decisions:
1. Classifying the problem (Generic? Unique? First manifestation of a generic problem)?
2. Defining the problem
3. Specifying the possible answers (boundary conditions)
4. Choosing the answer that fully meets the boundary conditions (before making compromises)
5. Implementing the decision (action)
6. Measuring the validity and effectiveness
7 (personal tip): If wrong, doing it again ;o)

Incredible,

I discover in Jarillo's book "Strategic Logic" that strategy is never more an art nor a bet: it's just a matter of logic!
Through explanations based on microeconomics items, he highlights how the success or the failure of main Internet companies like eBay or Amazon were predictable.
A useful tool for building a winning strategy :o)
