DESCRIPTION
 

Problem solving is a critical skill for leaders, managers, and teams striving for operational excellence. A structured approach ensures that problems are clearly defined, root causes are identified, and effective solutions are implemented and sustained.

​

This Five Steps of Problem Solving Training Presentation (Problem Solving PPT) introduces a practical framework for tackling issues systematically. It equips facilitators, trainers, and consultants with tools and methods to guide participants through each step of the process, making it suitable for workshops, leadership programs, and organizational improvement initiatives.
