Problem-solving skills show employers that you can handle challenges, think
critically and find effective solutions. These abilities are essential for improving
business processes, managing tasks and adapting to unexpected situations. Beyond
the workplace, strong problem-solving skills can also help you make better decisions
and build stronger relationships in everyday life. Developing this skill set can help
set you apart professionally and support your success in many areas of life.
HOW TO SOLVE PROBLEM?
Problem-solving skills are the abilities that enable individuals to identify the root
cause of an issue, evaluate potential solutions and implement the most effective
one. While problem solving is often viewed as a standalone skill, it actually draws on
a range of related abilities such as critical thinking, communication, adaptability and
technical expertise.These skills are essential across virtually every profession and
career level. For example, a registered nurse must use active listening and clear
communication to understand a patient’s concerns, while also applying technical
knowledge of medical conditions and treatments. Recognizing when to escalate a
situation or consult a physician is a key part of effective decision-making and
ensures the best possible outcome for the patient.
Examples of problem-solving skills
Active listening
Active listening typically involves focusing on a speaker, understanding their
message, reflecting on what is said, responding thoughtfully, and retaining the
information for future reference. This can enable you to identify underlying
problems, gather important information, and understand different perspectives
when addressing an issue.
