The Principles of Problem Solving and Decision Making:

Techniques that support the latest concepts for Creative and Critical Thinking.

A 5-day course

Every person in the workplace is charged with reacting to and identifying problems, determining an approach to their resolution and then engaging in the decision making process to realise these solutions.

This course provides participants with the tools to work through this process in a credible manner and to develop skills in problem identification, evaluation and resolving decision making that brings value to the organisation.

The course also leads its participants through the engaging experience of taping into their creativity; developing emerging ideas; evaluating the viability of these ideas through processes of critical thinking; linking in the synergistic potential of working with others and channeling the resulting strategies into reality.

Incorporating the profiling of personal thinking styles and comparisons with the styles and impact of colleagues and the drivers of thinking preferences, participants will experience the power of positive thinking and communication approaches.

This course provides participants with a process to engage modern creative and critical thinking to the evaluation of problems and the resulting generation and implementation of effective decision making.
