Lösungskompetenz

English translation: problem-solving skills

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
German term or phrase:Lösungskompetenz
English translation:problem-solving skills
Entered by: Klaus Urban

German to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Management / Human Resources
German term or phrase: Lösungskompetenz
The context is a template for job descriptions.
In the section "Anforderungen an den Stelleninhaber" there are three categories of competencies listed:
Fachkompetenz
Methodenkompetenz
***Lösungskompetenz***.
My online search resulted in "competence to provide solutions" as best translation for "Lösungskompetenz". However, this term does not fit well to the translations I found for the other two. Any ideas?

IMHO "Lösungskompetenz" = "Problemlösungskompetenz", which is an HR classic/buzzword.
