M1A1: Beginning Your Solution Proposal: Problem Identification

Your final project will be to develop a solution proposal for a problem you have encountered, are encountering, or anticipate encountering in your field or place of work. Solution proposals are great ways to present your problem, its impact on the organization, and to make a pitch to stakeholders to implement your solution.

Each portion of your solution proposal will be completed in specific modules of the course and will culminate in your final solution proposal and a presentation. For this assignment, you will be identifying a problem or issue that will be the foundation of your solution plan.
