What is the meaning of 'less concrete'? Is 'less' an adverb? But they tended to avoid the less concrete issues, like how to ensure the workers knew what they were expected to achieve. - The phrase ”less concrete issue“, which is translated by Baidu Translate, means "更具体的问题" ( = more specific questions )。。。I'm quite confused with this answer. Could you help me tell if the translation "更具体的问题" is correct?

It means: the issues which are less concrete. Less modifies concrete

"Less" is an adverb modifying "concrete" which is an adjective here. From the Cambridge: "clear and certain, or real and existing in a form that can be seen or felt." http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/concrete?q=Concrete
