IF YOU ACT AS A THINKER YOU BECOME ONE. Six Thinking Hats - Parallel Thinking
In 1985 Dr Edward de Bono designed an alternative method of 'parallel thinking' which is now widely used in business and education. The Six Thinking Hats will teach you how to separate thinking into six distinct categories; each identified by its own coloured metaphorical "thinking hat". By mentally wearing and switching "hats", you can easily focus or redirect thoughts, the conversation, or the meeting and break free from the traditional argument system
Within Edward de Bono's Six Thinking Hats process, White Hat Thinking focuses on data, facts, and information known or needed. White Hat Thinking separates fact from speculation. With the White Hat, we look for information that is relevant to the current focus. The value of the information will fall along a spectrum of relevance and of accuracy. Relevance may range from crucial fact to barely relevant. Accuracy may range from hard fact that can be checked easily to information that is likely to be untrue. Information that falls at any point along these two spectrums can be offered in White Hat thinking so long as the person who offers it also indicates where on each spectrum it falls. Here are some of the areas that are pursued under the White Hat:
If we focus on information that we need after weve listed everything that wed like to have, then its a matter of prioritizing. If weve gone straight to thinking about what is most needed, then its a matter of discriminating. Whats the minimum information we must have before we can move forward? Example: We have to find out if this applicant has experience in integrating social media into a marketing plan before we put her in the final running.
My Red Hat feeling is that I resent the email that was sent out. (Notice that no reasons are given. It is difficult but important not to explain the reasons.)
Example We agreed to hold this meeting to target the customers most likely to keep buying our products during an economic downturn.
