1:30 – Problem Solving
Erin Craven-Patrick – Director Marketing & Sales at 3M Canada
According to a 3M Canada survey, when it comes to solving problems at work and at home, Canadians can be categorized into three distinct types of problem solvers; the Take Charge Type who like to solve problems themselves, the Practical Type who call in the professionals and the Trusting Type who ask friends or family for help. When visiting somewhere new, 59 per cent of Canadians look up directions online before setting out on their journey. Thirty-two per cent rely on their GPS once they’re on the road. Men are more likely to try and fix a frozen computer themselves (42 per cent vs. 18 per cent of women), while women are more likely to ask for help from a family member (46 per cent vs. 20 per cent men). Forty-two per cent of those 65+ (male and female) would call a family member for help. If faced with a flat tire, men are more likely to change it themselves (63 per cent vs. 18 per cent women). Getting out the tools to fix a leaky tap on their own is the solution for nearly half (46 per cent) of those aged 45-54, while only about one quarter (27 per cent) of those 18-34 would attempt to go at it alone.
