What is the course

What is the Interpersonal Problem-Solving programme?

A practical, outcome-focused training programme designed to help teams build knowledge, apply tools and improve performance in real work situations.

The Interpersonal Problem-Solving programme gives professionals a practical approach to problems that involve other people: understanding perspectives, defining the real issue, generating options and agreeing actions together, so that problems are resolved and relationships stay productive.

UnderstandPerspectives, listening and empathy

ApplyProblem definition and option tools

ImprovePractical solutions and healthy teamwork

Is this right for your team

Is this built for your team?

This course is ideal for many organisations, but may not be the best fit for every situation. Here’s a quick guide to help you decide.

Ideal for teams who:
  • Want people who work through issues with others constructively
  • Are looking for a private, tailored training experience
  • Need relevant, Indonesia-based training delivery
  • Need fewer misunderstandings and quicker resolution of everyday problems
Another course may be better if:
  • You are looking for a public, open-enrolment course
  • You need a highly technical or specialist certification
  • You need technical or analytical problem-solving training only
  • You are primarily looking for consultancy rather than training

Real business impact

Which workplace issues does this course fix?

Turn common challenges into opportunities. This course addresses the people problems that slow work and strain relationships.

MisunderstandingsPeople assume they know what others mean, and small gaps turn into larger problems.
Blame and defensivenessConversations focus on who is at fault rather than what needs to change.
Jumping to solutionsFixes are proposed before the real problem is understood, so issues come back.
Unspoken concernsPeople avoid raising issues, so problems are discovered late.
Different perspectivesColleagues see the same situation differently and struggle to find common ground.
Poor follow-throughAgreed actions are vague, so nobody is sure who will do what and by when.

Tangible results

What outcomes will participants achieve?

Practical learning. Measurable impact. Participants leave with the skills, confidence and tools to make a real difference at work.

Clearer understandingSee problems from other people’s point of view before acting.
The right problemDefine the real issue and separate facts, assumptions and feelings.
Practical optionsGenerate and compare solutions that work for the people involved.
Constructive conversationsRaise issues early and keep the focus on the problem, not the person. People feel heard, and resolution comes sooner.
Agreed next stepsLeave conversations with clear actions, owners and dates. Solutions hold because everyone knows what they committed to.

Course objectives

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  1. Describe how problems involving people differ from technical problems
  2. Recognise assumptions and biases that cloud judgement
  3. Apply active listening to understand different perspectives
  4. Use questions to explore a problem fully
  5. Separate facts, interpretations and emotions
  6. Define a problem clearly and agree what success looks like
  7. Generate and evaluate options with others
  8. Reach agreement and commit to practical actions
  9. Handle emotions and defensiveness during problem-solving
  10. Raise sensitive issues respectfully and early
