These problems cause stress in our minds and leave us exhausted. Instinctively, we start to take ad-hoc actions that we think will resolve the problem, but we soon realize that our actions are not effective and do not prevent or solve the core problem. Structured problem solving provides a systematic approach to identify the root causes to a problem. Many scientific tools and methods have been developed to identify effective solutions to any problem. The most widely used problem solving techniques are Fishbone Diagram, Brainstorming, Failure Modes and Effects Analysis, SWOT matrix and 5Whys. Several organizations leverage these problem solving methods to manage their problems at work. Learning about problem solving tools will definitely help you to effectively solve your problems at work and in everyday life. This book will give you an understanding of the different problem solving tools along with practical examples and applications of these tools.
