1 The Problem-Solving Style Inventory

The Problem-Solving Style Inventory (PSSI) is a self-assessment tool that measures how your clients prefer to approach and solve problems. It consists of 32 statements that reflect four dimensions of problem-solving: rational, intuitive, avoidant, and impulsive. By completing the PSSI, your clients can discover their dominant and secondary problem-solving styles, and how they affect their decision-making, communication, and creativity. You can use the PSSI results to tailor your coaching strategies, help your clients leverage their strengths, and address their weaknesses.

2 The 5 Whys Technique

The 5 Whys Technique is a simple but powerful tool for finding the root cause of a problem. It involves asking "why" five times (or more) until you reach the core issue that needs to be solved. For example, if your client is struggling with low self-esteem, you can ask: Why do you feel bad about yourself? Why do you think others are better than you? Why do you compare yourself to others? Why do you care what others think? Why do you not value your own qualities? By using the 5 Whys Technique, you can help your clients dig deeper into their problems, identify the underlying beliefs and assumptions that hold them back, and challenge them to change their perspective.

One way to use the 5 Whys is with Cognitive Behaviour Therapy principles, which uncover how we are thinking about a problem (based on assumptions and our history), and whether that thinking is supporting resolution or not. It opens us to fresh ways of interpreting what we perceive is happening. Another valuable tool in the workplace is to invite other people's thoughts, which will be based on different life experiences and culture to our own. Team diversity is proven to stimulate higher quality solutions.

3 The SCAMPER Method

The SCAMPER Method is a creative tool for generating new ideas and solutions for a problem. It is an acronym that stands for: Substitute, Combine, Adapt, Modify, Put to another use, Eliminate, and Reverse. By applying these questions to a problem, you can help your clients explore different possibilities and alternatives, and stimulate their imagination. For example, if your client wants to start a new business, you can ask: What can you substitute in your product or service? How can you combine it with something else? How can you adapt it to a different market or audience? How can you modify it to make it better or different? How can you put it to another use or context? What can you eliminate to simplify it or reduce costs? How can you reverse it or do the opposite of what is expected?

4 The STAR Method

The STAR Method is a structured tool for describing and evaluating a problem-solving situation. It is an acronym that stands for: Situation, Task, Action, and Result. By using the STAR Method, you can help your clients reflect on their past experiences, identify the skills and strategies they used, and assess the outcomes and feedback they received. You can also use the STAR Method to prepare your clients for future scenarios, help them set goals and action plans, and monitor their progress and results.

When appropriate, the SWOT analysis assists with clarifying the array of challenges my client is facing. And examining it from the standpoint of being a creator and effective problem resolver. I like the power of each category: S = Strengths, what Strengths do I currently have, both related to and unrelated to the concern? W= Weakness, let's list what you see as current challenges you face in resolving the challenge O= What opportunities exist which you may take advantage of right here and now to begin the resolution. Let's search for some you didn't realize you had. T = What external threats exist beyond this situation we may need to address and plan for. Very empowering method with my clientele.

The STAR Method is great to reflect on past accomplishments and situations that have been resolved. It is helpful to review the scenarios when preparing for an interview. You can site specific scenarios during the interview to support your statements.

5 The Six Thinking Hats

The Six Thinking Hats is a tool for enhancing the quality and diversity of thinking in a problem-solving situation. It involves using six different colored hats that represent six modes of thinking: white (facts and information), red (emotions and feelings), black (criticism and risks), yellow (optimism and benefits), green (creativity and alternatives), and blue (process and overview). By switching between these hats, you can help your clients look at a problem from different perspectives, balance their emotions and logic, avoid biases and assumptions, and improve their collaboration and communication.
