Here is a powerfully simple tool that you and your business can use to create a climate of clearer thinking, improved communication, and greater creativity. The Six Thinking Hats® seminar is the program for anyone who makes key decisions in business, government or personal life. Attend. This is one of the best things you can ever do for yourself!

SIX THINKING HATS


COURSE OUTLINE


I. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

A business organization’s most valuable resource is its management team – the company’s core group of skilled and experienced executives. Executives are highly paid because their most critical competence and skill – whether they are presiding in a meeting, working with the management team, or preparing a report – is thinking. Ultimately, the quality of their thinking and the actions that flow from this thinking activity determine their effectiveness and contribution to the enterprise.

Dr. Edward de Bono’s Six Thinking Hats® method provides the enterprise simple yet powerful tools for harnessing the power of its most precious resource: the collective intelligence, knowledge and experience of the management team. The Six Thinking Hats® method with its practical and uniquely positive approach to making decisions and exploring new ideas helps the management team think more effectively together. Unlike the traditional argument and confrontation mode present in most meetings, the Six Thinking Hats® method of parallel thinking provides a climate of open communication and clearer thinking.
