General problem solving is the ability to find answers to problems using an organised thought process.
Aids such as graphic organisers can assist people with problem solving. Graphic organisers allow people to visualise the entire problem in its smaller parts.
Other supports such as job coaching services and mentors can assist people with problem solving in the workplace. Prompts, reminders and checklists can assist people with problem solving as they can be used to assess the situation and provide information about the problem, such as what has been done, when and what is next.
