Problem Solving and Decision Making
In today’s ultra-competitive work atmosphere, professionals must have great decision making skills. Coupled with this, the ability to solve complex problems, extract solutions and simplify them is key in the modern business climate. Because these are continuously evolving skill-sets, various tools and resources are available to sharpen problem solving skills. Another key aspect is how you think and reason.
