Adaptability and Problem-Solving:
Strategies for Overcoming Obstacles
Request Information
Introduction
Adaptability is an essential skill for effective problem-solving, as it allows us to explore new perspectives, approaches, and solutions, and to adapt to and overcome obstacles and challenges.
In this training, we will explore the role of adaptability in effective problem-solving, and how it can help us overcome obstacles and achieve success. We will also learn about different techniques for brainstorming and generating potential solutions, and about strategies for adapting to and overcoming obstacles.

- To understand the role of adaptability in effective problem-solving
- To learn techniques for brainstorming and generating potential solutions
- To explore strategies for adapting to and overcoming obstacles
- To apply these strategies in work settings
- The training will be delivered through a combination of lectures, group discussions, and practical exercises.
- Participants will have the opportunity to share their experiences and challenges, and to ask questions and engage with the content.
- The training will also include several practical exercises that will allow participants to apply the concepts and strategies learned in real-life scenarios.
(included in Half-Day and Full Day sessions)
- The Problem-Solving Process: This process outlines a systematic approach to problem-solving, including the steps of defining the problem, generating potential solutions, evaluating and selecting a solution, and implementing and evaluating the solution.
- The Adaptability Quotient (AQ) Framework: This framework suggests that adaptability is a combination of four key factors: cognitive flexibility, emotional intelligence, physical vitality, and social agility.
- The Design Thinking Process: This process encourages a human-centered approach to problem- solving, and advocates for empathizing with users, defining problems, ideating solutions, prototyping, and testing.
- The Problem-Solving Process can be applied to a wide range of problems and challenges, and can help teams and organizations approach problem-solving in a structured and systematic way.
- The AQ Framework can be used to assess and improve one’s adaptability skills, and to create development plans and goals.
- The Design Thinking Process can be used to encourage a culture of creativity and innovation within the organization, and to promote an iterative and user-centered approach to problem-solving.
included in 90-min, Half Day & Full Day sessions
- Participants will complete a self-assessment using the AQ Framework to identify their strengths and areas for improvement in terms of adaptability.
- Participants will work in groups to brainstorm and identify a problem or challenge in their work settings, and will use the Problem-Solving Process to generate and evaluate potential solutions.
- Participants will work in groups to brainstorm and identify a problem or challenge in their work settings, and will use the Design Thinking Process to generate and prototype potential solutions.
At the end of this session, participants will have gained a deeper understanding of the role of adaptability in effective problem-solving, and will have learned about different techniques and strategies for brainstorming and generating potential solutions.
They will also have explored strategies for adapting to and overcoming obstacles, and will have practiced applying these strategies in real-life scenarios. Participants will be able to take these skills and strategies back to their work settings, and use them to solve problems and overcome challenges more effectively.
