Re: Example of problem solving skills
Analytical problem solving skills is an important job skill. There is no company or organization that doesn’t depend on problem solving abilities to keep their business moving forward. A Problem Solving Structure These four phases are part of the problem solving process: Understand what the problem is. Make a plan to resolve. Carry out the plan. Look back and verify. What Can You Do? Once you’ve identified the problem, you need to look at that problem from different angles. Try to gather facts related to the problem, and try to recall previous solutions that would apply. What Should You Look For? Look for ideas that can help find a solution. Even ideas that are incomplete should be considered. There’s no single method that solves all problems. Think about whether you’ve seen the same problem or a similar problem in the past. Analyze the relationship between data and conditions. Then determine what facts you know apply. Create a list of goals. Determine whether you’ve used all your hypotheses and what the outcome might be. Divide the problems into separate cases. Determine proof via contradiction. Transform the problem and then reinstate. Work backwards starting with the conclusion. Simplify the Problem Take advantage of any symmetry, which generally exist. Your first solution may not work and that’s okay don’t become discouraged. Instead try a different approach. Example for problem solving skills 1. Evaluate the problem – Sales need to be increased by 20% 2. Identify solutions Increase the markup Increase the number of items offered for sale Decrease the cost of goods 3. Select the best solution – Increase the markup 4. Test and review Look at how the solution you chose is working and determine whether that was the right solution. When the answer is yes, carry on with your decision. When the answer is no try another solution |
