7 Thinking Hats...

Parallel Thinking and The Six Thinking Hats . . .

The Six Thinking was developed from the concept of Parallel Thinking which seeks to be constructive and creative. It allows group consideration of an issue or idea without the intervention of dispute or disagreement . It is one way that a number of people can use collective energy to approach an issue from the same perspective . . .

Parallel Thinking does not exclude critical judgement completely. Instead, it works alongside it to achieve a better result . . .
