Address all of the below:

Develop one simple consistent problem statement

Describe the (hypothetical or real) organization
Name
Location (rural, urban, etc.)
Mission
Number of staff
Other pertinent information about the organization or environment
Specific division, department, or program description
Problem Statement
What is the performance problem the organization or department wants to improve?
Reasons Selected e.g.,
Not serving client or population needs?

Not meeting internal goals?
High risk?
High volume?
How is the problem being addressed currently (in general terms)?
How do you know the performance should or can be improved?
As you know, in almost every case, it is necessary to form a team to address such a problem.  How would you go about forming such a team?  What talents or skills would you look to recruit? How would you prevent some person or group from dominating?  How would you ensure a balance of conformance and opposition?
