I always follow a four-step process : assessing the exact problem and what i want to achieve. Gaining clarity its very important when problem solving. I will weigh up my options before deciding an a definitive plan of action for resolving the problem, preventing it for happening again. I was involved listening the complaints from an dissatisfaction client. I asked probing questions to gain total clarity on the issue, and i apologise if the company was at fault offered several solutions to his complaint. By giving this option i am effective making him valued and in control. Finally i was apologised again, implementing the resolution before making sure lessons were learnt to prevent the same situation from happening again. Before making a decision i always put the organisation first ,if i understand the vision of my team or the organisation , this enables me to make decisions that are justifiable and effective . I also consider the risk versus reward . For example, if my decision involves taking a risk, i will decide what the benefit is to the organisation before going ahead with it.

I was working on a challenging project with three other people at work for an important client. Literally, seven days before the project deadline, two members of the team feel ill. It was my responsibility to come up with a solution to this difficult problem, to ensure the project deadline did not get missed. I considered carefully my options before speaking to another department within the organisation to ask if i could borrow two members of staff for the seven day period. Fortunately, the team manager agreed to this and i stayed behind late that evening to train up two new members of the team, before allocating them each task they needed to complete in time for the project deadline. Over the next seven days i monitored their performance carefully and supported them in their duties. Thankfully, we all worked together to get the project completed to the required standard just in time for the deadline. If ever there is a problem or challenge ad work, i can be relied upon to sort it out.
