For example, let’s assume that in one evening, the severe weather has caused a sudden power outage at one of CTU’s campuses. We can use a one sentence “problem statement” to describe such problem: “In the campus, all classrooms are now embedded in the darkness due to the sudden power outage.” In this statement, the problem symptom is “In the campus, all classrooms are now embedded in the darkness” while the problem root cause is “the sudden power outage”. That is this is an accurate one sentence problem statement for this situation.
