Process six is about how to implement the solution (Tubbs, 2012, p. 291-2). Moreover, to finalize the solution is to follow up on it and make sure that the solution actually can …show more content…

As the group evaluates the solution, we will rank by the list of criteria, which will have all the solutions and the criteria together and on a created chart. On the far left the group to have all of the criteria listed, and on the top of the chart, the group listed all the solutions from the brainstorm.
