Department Problem Solving in the Workplace

In the workplace, forming departments has to be done with preparation for problem solving purposes. A great format is making a steps system to make sure problems will be effectively solved. I came across seven steps for a problem solving process in the workplace. Step one is to identify the issues; you need to have a clear understanding of what the problem is. Step two is to understand everyone's issues so make sure you're actively listening. Step three is to list the possible solutions by brainstorming. Step four is to evaluate the options by weighing the pros and cons. Step five is to select an option of the best solution. Step six is to document to agreement that way you will not forget it. Step seven is to agree with the contingencies, monitoring, and evaluation by making contingency agreements for future instances, monitor follow ups, and evaluate the agreements.
