ABOUT

With organizations running “leaner and meaner,” individual contributors, managers, and executives alike need to understand how to methodically, strategically, and collaboratively make decisions, solve problems, and foster innovation.

In this highly dynamic workshop, participants will gain greater insight into what it means to not only think critically, but also how to act critically in order to achieve greater organizational success.


Imagine if you could solve a problem once and it would go away. Or, if you could implement a solution that really works, or seize upon opportunities before it is too late.

This training presents a structured approach for tackling problems, opportunities and decisions that will ultimately help you get better results—whether you are innovating, managing crises or planning for the future. The training addresses the five types of critical thinking needed in business environments: strategic thinking, tactical thinking, analytical thinking, innovative thinking and implicative thinking.

It also teaches a proven 6-step process for responding to business problems and opportunities.

Through exercises, you’ll practice using these different thinking approaches to achieve maximum results. You’ll also have the opportunity to apply these concepts to a specific problem or opportunity from your own business environment, share newly learned approaches with classmates, and give and receive feedback on those approaches.
