Problem solving is the process of developing a structured understanding of an issue; the process of formulating the problem and contriving a solution. In today’s ill-structured, turbulent, and information-laden business environment, solving the right problem is of crucial importance and often of strategic significance. Instead of defining a typology of problems, the purpose of this paper is to explore the problem space defined by two dimensions, i.e. content complexity and process management complexity. Gaining a better understanding of the problem space can be useful in framing the problem domain associated with the issue under consideration.
