As a leader, it’s easy to get hooked on solving every problem for your organization—it feels great to be the hero. However, this can actually hinder your team’s development. In today’s episode, we are going to show you how to step back and empower your team to build their problem-solving skills.

Tiffany has crafted a five-stage framework to help assess where a team member is in their problem-solving journey and guide them to the next level when they’re ready.

Here’s a breakdown of the stages:

• Stage One: Team members ignore issues and don’t communicate them.
• Stage Two: They start communicating these issues.
• Stage Three: They communicate issues and bring at least three potential solutions, which is a key step in developing their problem-solving abilities.
• Stage Four: They communicate the problem, propose three solutions, and recommend a plan of action.
• Stage Five: They clearly state the problem, suggest three solutions, and resolve the issue on their own.

Encourage your team to listen to this episode, identify their current stage, and discuss their goals for growth.
