The Hong Kong Society for Quality (HKSQ) and
CityU EngD Society co-organized a webinar on “運用轉換橋分析「動態清零」和「與病毒共存」的矛盾問題及提升決策質量的初探” on 23rd March 2022. The webinar aimed to introduce four key elements of decision
quality and using transformation bridge to propose solution between “Dynamic
Zero” and “Coexistence with Virus” so as to enhance decision quality.
In the beginning, HKSQ and CityU EngD program
were introduced. Then the recently Omicron infection situation in Hong Kong was
briefed. And then four key elements of
decision quality including Moral Intensity, Information Quality, Group
Cohesiveness and Decision Experience were discussed and a poll to survey which
element is most important for decision quality is performed. The top one is
Information Quality (65%).
After that Extenics, Extension Model and
Transformation Bridge were briefed. Extenics is an original China New Science
for studying the possibility of extending things and rules and methodology of
developing innovation with formalized patterns to resolving contradictory
problem. Transformation bridge is used to solve antithetical problem and come
out “win-win” solution through transformation of goals or transformation of
condition limit.
And then extension model was employed to describe
“Dynamic Zero” and “Coexistence with Virus”, as well as, anti-epidemic
condition limit.
Using the implication and correlation analysis, all
measures relationship were draw visually and analyzed their relationship of
impact.
Finally, we found the common subordinal goal under
implying passages that were to increase effective medicine and vaccination
rates. It could also consider to use
transforming passage to transform the condition limit to be acceptable level
for changing strategy from “Dynamic Zero” to “Coexistence with Virus”.
Lastly, anti-epidemic policy cycle diagram was
proposed and concluded that
"First zero, then coexistence, and then zero, after that coexistence".
At the end, a poll for which policies are better
and results were anti-epidemic policy cycle diagram (59%), coexistence with
virus (17%), dynamic zero (12%), others (12%).
Q&A
Wilson Lam proposed
to divide Hong Kong into three parts (HK island, Kowloon and N.T.) for dynamic
zero. Stephen Au said four elements of decision
quality are very good not only for this topic but also employed in corporate decisions.
