8 Step Problem Solving

Time by time the problems appear in any field of our life and activities, and we can't to escape this. Any problem always has a certain content, the reasons and the circle of involved people. But the main task of any human, any organization, any company that was faced with a problem, is not to get lost and vice versa confidently look for the ways of solving this problem. The first you need to clarify the problem's essence, then to breakdown your problem and set a target. The most responsible step is to identify the cause-effect relationship, because each problem has its own root causes, and their detection will allow qualitatively solve this problem and avoid the similar problems in a future. Then you need to develop the countermeasures to counter the root cause of the problem and to make sure in their effectiveness, that they lead to the desired results. And finally standardize successful processes.
