  3. Analyze a complex, but localized (not a general one), problem situation and formulate a clearly stated problem with a key, variable function.
  4. Work, under the leadership of a GB Facilitator, in a team of client’s experts during the process of generating ideas and concepts to achieve the project goal.
  5. Participate in the planning process for concept implementation.
