Just finished the course “Critical Thinking” and found it insightful.

🎯 Mastering Problem Solving: A three-step approach In today's fast-paced world, effective problem-solving is more critical than ever. Here's a simple yet powerful framework to tackle any challenge: 1. Identify and frame: Clearly define the problem. Understand its scope, impact, and underlying causes. A well-framed problem is already half-solved! 2. Divide and conquer: Break the problem into smaller, manageable parts. Assign tasks, set timelines, and tackle each component systematically. Don't hesitate to ask others for help. 3. Communicate and Celebrate: Keep everyone informed. Share progress, gather feedback, and make adjustments as needed. And don't forget to celebrate the milestones and final success – acknowledging achievements boosts morale and fosters a positive team environment. By following these steps, we can confidently navigate complexities and drive impactful solutions. Read Ivona Hirschi's newsletter (link is in the comment) on integrating these steps to sharpen your decision-making skills.
