About the workshop
Well skilled and empowered managers, foremen, supervisors, team leaders and specialists play a critical role in ensuring success in the workplace and in their companies. Effective problem solving and decision making is the foundation for personal, team and organisational success.
Every day of our life we are faced with problems on various levels. It is important to be able to determine what a problem is and what a “perceived” problem is. In this training workshop unit you will be introduced to defining a problem and selecting techniques to analyse problems and to make decisions that solves the problems.
A large portion of a manager’s day is spent dealing with a variety of problems and making decisions relating to key result areas. How these problems are solved and decisions made, have a direct result on your success as a manager/supervisor.
