Course Overview
Decisions must be made as a result of the challenges we are constantly faced with. We make decisions most of the time without having to go through a lengthy decision-making process. Are we famished? We choose to eat. The course on creative problem-solving and decision-making will assist you in developing the proper frame of mind.
Working life frequently involves dealing with problems and difficulties, and getting through them isn’t always simple. You must promote innovative thinking and come up with practical solutions if you want to increase your offerings in the areas of goods, services, communications, and interpersonal abilities as well as your organization’s performance.
Some issues are more intricate. A logical approach to problem-solving is necessary when deciding how to prioritize our work or why a process failed and what to do about it. Frequently, things worsen.
We must be able to think critically and check that our reasoning is sound because our choices may have a big impact on our lives, our jobs, or the lives of those around us.
In other instances, the issue is so peculiar that it defies critical and rational thought; in these situations, creative problem solving and decision-making skills are vital resources. We will discuss each of these critical thinking techniques in this course. After you have a better knowledge of how your mind works, we will provide you with you some techniques and tools that you can use in everyday circumstances as well as more complex or uncommon ones. You will practice these techniques and skills during the sessions.
