Any workplace will have problems to be solved. This is a good sign as a workplace is designed to solve problems and create solutions for their target markets.

The challenge faced by many employees is problems were not solved effectively and as a result, the problems recur or develop into new problems further down the line. In a time-strapped workplace, problems that are not effectively solved will result in re-work, frustrations and loss of productivity.

The aim of every employee is to solve problems right the first time. This will ensure everyone does not waste precious time, gets the job done well and move on with their other tasks.
