CTI Maldives recently conducted a highly engaging session on Critical Thinking and Problem Solving for the staff of The Silver Sands Pvt Ltd. Led by Coach Ifreen, a recognized lecturer at the Maldives National University (MNU) and an accomplished officer at the Maldives Cadet Corps, the session delved into the essential role of critical thinking in effectively handling communication, particularly in addressing the most crucial aspects of any situation. The session provided participants with valuable insights into how critical thinking can transform their approach to problem-solving and decision-making in the workplace.
Coach Ifreen emphasized that critical thinking is not just an optional skill but a necessity in today’s fast-paced and complex work environments. He highlighted how critical thinking allows employees to assess situations more objectively, identify potential challenges, and make informed decisions. By focusing on the most important aspects of a problem or communication, individuals can avoid common pitfalls and ensure that their responses are both effective and efficient. The session underscored the idea that critical thinking is essential for navigating the complexities of workplace communication and ensuring successful outcomes.
Throughout the session, participants were presented with various scenarios that demonstrated the importance of critical thinking in real-world situations. Coach Ifreen shared examples from companies that prioritize critical thinking as part of their organizational culture, showing how this approach leads to more innovative solutions and better problem-solving outcomes. These scenarios helped participants understand the practical application of critical thinking skills and how they can be leveraged to address challenges and improve overall performance in their roles at The Silver Sands Pvt Ltd.
One of the key messages of the session was the close relationship between critical thinking and problem-solving. Coach Ifreen explained that effective problem-solving begins with a clear understanding of the problem itself, which is achieved through critical thinking. By dissecting the problem and identifying its core components, individuals can develop more targeted and effective solutions. The session reinforced the idea that critical thinking is a foundational skill that supports all aspects of problem-solving, from initial analysis to final implementation.
