Creative Problem-Solving Course in Norway – Part 1
- What is a Problem?
- The Random House Unabridged Dictionary incorporates several definitions for the word “problem.” The descriptions that we are most concerned with while learning about the creative problem-solving process are “any problem or matter involving doubt, uncertainty, or difficulty,” and “a question offered for solution or discussion.”
- What is Creative Problem Solving?
- Creative problem solving has grown since its conception in the 1950s. However, it is always a structured procedure to finding and implementing solutions. The creative problem-solving method involves creativity.
- What are the Steps in the Creative Solving Process?
- The Creative Problem Solving Process utilises six major steps to implement solutions to almost any kind of problem.
Creative Problem-Solving Course in Norway – Part 2
- Understanding Types of Information
- There are many different types of information. Fact, opinion and concept include information you will need to consider when beginning the creative problem-solving process.
- Identifying Key Questions
- When tackling a new problem, it is essential to talk to anyone who might be familiar with the problem. You can deduce a great deal of knowledge by asking questions of different people who might be affected by or know about the issue.
- Methods of Gathering Information
- When gathering data about a problem, there are several different approaches you can use. No one method is better than another. The approach depends on the problem and other circumstances.
Creative Problem-Solving Course in Norway – Part 3
- Defining the Problem
- When a dilemma comes to light, it may not be obvious exactly what the problem is. You must understand the problem before you waste time or money executing a solution.
- Determining Where the Problem Originated
- Successful problem solvers get to the source of the problem by interviewing or asking anyone who might remember something useful about the issue. Ask inquiries about the problem.
- Defining the Present State and the Desired State
- When using this tool, you write a declaration of the circumstance as it currently exists. Then you write a statement of what you would like the situation to look like. The desired state should incorporate concrete details and should not include any information about possible causes or solutions.

- The problem statement and restatement method also helps evolve the perception of the problem. First write a statement of the problem, no matter how vague. Then use several triggers to help identify the actual problem.
- Analysing the Problem
- When the cause of the problem is not known, such as in troubleshooting operations, you can look at the what, where, who, and extent of the problem to help define it. Examining the distinctions between what, where, when, and to what extent the problem is and what,
where, when, and to what extent it is not can lead to helpful insights about the issue.
- When the cause of the problem is not known, such as in troubleshooting operations, you can look at the what, where, who, and extent of the problem to help define it. Examining the distinctions between what, where, when, and to what extent the problem is and what,

Gladwell’s premise is that in an era of knowledge overload, our decisions based on insufficient information are often as good as or better than choices made with ample critical thinking.

- Using Cost/Benefits Analysis
- Cost-benefit analysis is a practice of assigning a monetary value to the potential benefits of a solution and weighing those corresponding the costs of executing that solution. It is crucial to include ALL of the benefits and costs.
Creative Problem-Solving Course in Norway – Part 8

Problem-solving skills refers to our capacity to resolve problems in a useful and timely manner without any obstructions. It involves being capable to identify and define the problem, creating alternative solutions, assessing and choosing the best option, and implementing the elected solution.
The Four Essential Steps of the Problem-Solving Process are as follows:
1) Determine the problem. Distinguish fact from opinion.
2) Create alternative solutions. Defer evaluating alternatives, take time to weigh the different solutions.
3) Assess and choose an alternative. Evaluate options based on a target standard.
4) Execute and follow up on the solution.
Good problem solvers are great thinkers. They do not tolerate drama and do not get overly sensitive when faced with a problem. They usually see obstacles as challenges and life experiences and try to stand beyond them, objectively. Good problem solvers use a mixture of intuition and logic to come up with their solutions.
The problem-solving model incorporates a useful set of skills into a step-by-step method. This method fuses the use of statistical tools, such as control charts, process flow diagrams, and table charts; with group problem-solving skills, such as brainstorming and accord decision-making.

Master other vital skills (for example, creativity) in order to be effective at problem-solving. Problems are usually solved either intuitively or systematically.
Excellent problem-solving activities give an introduction that empowers all students to be working on the same problem. The open-ended nature of problem-solving allows high performing students to spread the ideas involved to challenge their more excellent knowledge, including understanding. Problem-solving improves mathematical skills.
Problem-solving is crucial both to people and businesses because it enables us to exercise control over our environment. Problem-solving is at the heart of our evolution. It is the methods we use to understand what is happening in our environment, identify things we want to change, to outline the steps required to take in order to create the designated outcome. Problem-solving is the source of all new inventions, social and cultural evolution, and the basis for market-based economies. It is the foundation for constant improvement, discussion and learning.
A problem is a circumstance which prevents the achievement of a particular goal or objective. It can also be a declaration about a realm of concern, a situation to be improved, a difficulty to be reduced, or a troubling question that exists in scholarly literature that points to the need for meaningful knowledge and thoughtful inquiry.
Follow each of these steps to focus on the right problem and to consider the results of possible solutions. The process decreases the downside of dealing with difficult decisions and increases proficiency in taking the calculated risks that all leaders must take.
Action Steps:
Do not be overwhelmed by vast volumes of data.
Go below the surface to know the system that holds the problem.
Broaden the focus.
Define the limits of the problem.
Identify agents, effects, and critical elements.
Examine later developments.
Be able to solve problems better by building industry-specific knowledge. Here are other general problem-solving skills we all need:
Defining the Problem:Understanding a problem through research, leading to better solutions.
Brainstorm:Create numerous solutions immediately.
Analyze:Use disciplined thinking to assess each potential solution.
Manage Risk:Anticipate and avoid the downsides of solutions.
Decide:The experience to decide on a solution and move forward with it.
Manage Emotions:Use emotional intelligence to improve the ability to think clearly
A concise description of an issue or a condition requiring attention is a problem statement. A problem statement identifies the gap between the problem state and goal state of a process or product. Design the problem statement to address the Five Ws by focusing on the facts.
A difference between the real situation and the desired situation is the definition of a problem. Thus, to identify a problem, the team must know what it is and have a clear perception of where it currently is about the perceived problem.
In order to clearly define the problem, follow the steps below:
Accord with the team wherever the team should be
Define and detail the problem
