Understanding the problem

Understanding a problem means recognizing what the difficulty really is, what its causes, limits, effects and context are.

Definicja

Understanding the problem precedes a sensible solution. It involves distinguishing symptoms from causes, establishing a scale, collecting data, identifying stakeholders and determining what will constitute improvement. Without this, it is easy to solve an apparent problem or act on the loudest symptom.
