This document introduces Edward de Bono's six thinking hats technique for thinking outside the box. The six hats represent six different perspectives or types of thinking: blue (process), white (facts), red (feelings), black (caution), yellow (optimism), and green (creativity). Each hat has a role and set of questions to guide thinking from that perspective to overcome limitations of traditional brainstorming. Examples are given of how Steve Jobs exemplified thinking outside the box. In conclusion, the six thinking hats provides a multidimensional tool to improve problem solving, decision making, and thinking in innovative ways.

Mindset presentation currie cluster jan 2015curriechs
This document summarizes a teacher in-service on fostering a growth mindset in students. It discusses how a growth mindset believes intelligence can be developed through effort and learning from mistakes or setbacks. A fixed mindset believes intelligence is innate and cannot change. The in-service provides examples of how praise, strategies for success, dealing with failure, and role models can influence a growth versus fixed mindset. The goal for schools is to promote a growth mindset in students to increase motivation, resilience, and achievement.
Our ability to learn new ways to think is the power of human potential. We have to make choices about the types of thinking that we apply to a variety of different challenges. Critical Thinking is the act of examining a set of facts and analyzing and evaluating relevant information. We live in a knowledge based society, and the more critically you think the better your knowledge will be. Critical Thinking provides you with the skills to analyze and evaluate information so that you are able to obtain the greatest amount of knowledge from it. It provides the best chance of making the correct decision, and minimizes damages if a mistake does occur. Critical Thinking will lead to being a more rational and disciplined thinker. It will reduce your prejudice and bias, which will provide you a better understanding of your environment.
This workshop will provide you the skills to evaluate, identify, and distinguish between relevant and irrelevant information. It will lead you to be more productive in your career, and provide a great skill in your everyday life. Lastly, critical thinking skills will support your capacity to be innovative. Once you fully understand what it is, you can begin exploring what could be.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to answer the following questions:
a. What is critical thinking?
b. How can I use nonlinear thinking strategies?
c. What does it mean for me to apply logic to situations?
d. How do I know when, how, and why to think critically about a challenge?
e. What skills allow be to better evaluate facts and data?
f. How will thinking differently effect my decision outcomes?
g. How can I challenge my self to see alternate perspectives?
h. How can I increase my problem solving abilities?
The document provides strategies for effectively dealing with criticism by focusing on the personal growth and relationship benefits that can come from criticism rather than dwelling on the emotional reaction.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!
Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Why is the sky blue?
Is time travel possible?
Why doesn’t she like me?
Why doesn’t he like me?
As you start asking questions and seek
answers, you are in fact THINKING.
In other words:- Thinking is purposeful, organised process

❏ Could you elaborate further on that point?
❏ Could you express that point in another way?
❏ Could you give me an illustration?
12
Clarity is the gateway standard. If a statement is unclear, we cannot
determine whether it is accurate or relevant. In fact, we cannot tell
anything about it because we don't yet know what it is saying.
13. 4.2 Accuracy
❏ Is that really true?
❏ How could we check that?
❏ How could we find out if that is true?
A statement can be clear but not accurate

WEIGHS
MORE THAN
300
POUNDS!!!

14. 4.3 Precision
❏ Could you give more details?
❏ Could you be more specific?
A statement can be both clear and accurate, but not precise.

overweight
Thats true

pounds or 500
pounds

15. 4.4 Relevance
❏ How is that connected to the question?
❏ How does that bear on the issue?
I have given good
effort in studies
all semester so I
should get A+
The "effort" does
not measure the
quality of your
learning dear!
15
A statement can be clear, accurate and precise, but not
relevant to the question at issue.
16. 4.5 Depth
❏ How does your answer address the complexities in
the question?
❏ How are you taking into account the problems in the
question?
❏ Is that dealing with the most significant factors?
NOBODY
TELLS US
WHY!!!
16
A statement can be clear, accurate, precise and relevant, but
superficial.
17. 4.6 Breadth
❏ Do we need to consider another point of view?
❏ Is there another way to look at this question?
❏ What would this look like from the point of view
of . . .?
Was
studying
all night!!
You got zero
17
“participation”,
marks for
coz you
didn’t participate in the
class discussion at all.
A line of reasoning may be clear, accurate, precise, relevant
and deep, but still ignore another side of the argument.
18. 4.7 Logic
❏ Does this really make sense?
❏ How does this follow from what I said before?
❏ Does this contradict a previous statement?
When the combination of thoughts are mutually supporting and
make sense in combination, the thinking is "logical."

Superman can see through
anything!!
Superman can see through
walls!!
Superman can see through
you!!
19. 4.8 Fairness
❏ Do I have a vested interest in this issue?
❏ Am I sympathetically representing the viewpoints
of others?
❏ Am I open minded?
We do not naturally consider the rights and needs of others on
the same plane with their own rights and needs, but to be a
good thinker you should apply “Fairness” in your thinking.
