Problemsolving skills help you determine why an issue is happening and how to resolve that issue. It's one of the key skills that employers seek in job applicants. Problemsolving starts with identifying the issue, coming up with solutions, implementing those solutions, and evaluating their effectiveness. The McKinsey problemsolving process is a series of mindset shifts and structured approaches to thinking about and solving challenging problems.
Critical thinking skills are important as they enable people “to deal effectively with social, scientific, and practical problems”. Simply put, people who are able to think critically are able to solve problems effectively. Merely having knowledge or information is not enough.
