Competencies
This competency serves to aid effective problem solving and requires one to be effective at probing and analysing situations efficiently and accurately. This competency is important because, without sufficient analysis, effective solutions become less probable. In addition, poor analysis makes it more likely that individuals become confused and anxious, bored, error prone or overwhelmed by detail, which also impacts negatively on successful problem solving.(Interpreting, linking, and analysing information in order to understand issues).
