<strong><span style="color: #660000;">Tools and Techniques Used in Problem Solving</span></strong><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: black;">Observations and data collection.</span></li>
<li>Cause and effect analysis.</li>
<li>ABC analysis.</li>
<li>Histogram.</li>
<li>Why why or 5 why analysis to reach to the root cause of problem.</li>

</ul>
<strong><span style="color: #660000;">Guides and Tips on Each Stage of Creative Problem Solving</span></strong><br />
<ol>
<li><em>Curious observation:</em> Be alert- what is required? Be skeptical- so as to prevent trouble. Discover problems- ask why?</li>
<li><em>Is there really a problem?: </em>Analyze problem carefully and define it properly. </li>
<li><em>Goal setting and planning:</em> Break problem down into sub goal or sub problems. </li>
<li><em>Search, explore and collect evidence:</em> Search Internet, books and other sources. Follow leads. Explore all the angles. </li>
<li><em>Generate creative and logical <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">alternative</span> solutions:</em> Search for ideas, refer related sources and publications to imagine and to think.</li>
<li><em>Evaluate the evidence:</em> Wherever possible, chart evaluations of your tentative solutions or theories. Compare and test.</li>
<li><em>Make the hypothesis (Educated Guess):</em> State your hypothesis clearly. Make predictions for testing.</li>
<li><em>Challenge the hypothesis:</em> Test. Experiment. Control variables. </li>
<li><em>Reach a conclusion:</em> Can others test and confirm your conclusions?</li>
<li><em>Suspend judgment:</em> Keep an open mind. Be ready to accept new evidence. Knowledge is forever changing<em>.</em> </li>
<li><em>Take action:</em> Without timely implementation, problem solving is never complete.</li>
</ol>
Below are the supporting stages and tips used at all the preceding stages: <br />
<ol>
<li><em>Creative, non-logical, logical and technical methods:</em> Use all types of methods at all the stages to accomplish results.</li>
<li><em>Procedural principles and theories:</em> Follow those used by researchers everywhere but anything goes (if ethical).</li>
<li><em>Attributes and thinking skills:</em> Be team worker, communicator etc. Use creativity. Reason logically.</li>
</ol>
<strong><span style="color: #660000;"><em>Benefits from Problem Solving</em> and It's Process</span></strong><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: black;">Hidden information and new issues are revealed.</span></li>
<li>Systematic means/process for dealing with problems.</li>
<li>An attitude change from problem focus to opportunity focus.</li>
<li>Recognition of other positive outcomes beyond the problem being solved.</li>
<li>Reduction in time wasted.</li>
<li>Highly skilled employees.</li>
</ul>
<strong><span style="color: #660000;">Pitfalls</span></strong><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: black;">Defining the problem incorrectly.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: black;">If the steps in the problem solving are missed or wrongly tackled or wrongly sequenced, problem solving process is disrupted and good solutions may not emerge.</span></li>
<li>Absence of targets of time line, costs, quality etc.</li>
<li>Trying to solve the problems beyond one's ability.</li>
<li>Involving wrong people in problem solving process.</li>
<li>Insufficient monitoring.</li>
<li>Trying to see or imagine a problem when none exists. Just because you have a hammer, don't fix the nail.</li>
</ul>
