Some team building exercises and icebreakers exercises that can help build a good judgment across the teams and helping them to find the team in teamwork.
The document discusses the Six Thinking Hats framework for optimizing thought processes. It describes using a sequence of colored hats to address different aspects of a problem. The hats represent distinct thinking directions: white for facts, red for emotions, black for risks/concerns, yellow for positives, green for creative alternatives, and blue for managing the process. Applying this parallel thinking approach systematically considers all perspectives and can lead to more innovative solutions.
The document outlines an agenda for a workshop on facilitating Scrum retrospectives using the Six Thinking Hats technique. It includes an introduction to Scrum retrospectives and the Six Thinking Hats method. A simulation of building an airplane using Scrum principles is used to demonstrate a Scrum sprint. The agenda then covers Scrum retrospective theory, the Six Thinking Hats technique, and guides participants through running a retrospective using the Six Thinking Hats approach.
The document discusses the Six Thinking Hats technique created by Dr. Edward de Bono. It describes each of the six hats - white (information), red (feelings), black (critique), yellow (optimism), green (creativity), and blue (process) - and provides examples of the types of thinking associated with each hat. The goal of using the technique is to look at decisions from different perspectives in order to get a more well-rounded view. Benefits of the Six Thinking Hats include improving exploration, saving time, improving creativity and innovation, and fostering collaborative thinking.
The document describes Edward de Bono's "Six Thinking Hats" method for structured thinking and discussion. The six hats represent six different perspectives or thinking styles: White Hat focuses on objective facts; Red Hat focuses on emotions and intuition; Black Hat focuses on caution and potential problems; Yellow Hat focuses on benefits and optimism; Green Hat focuses on creative ideas and possibilities; Blue Hat focuses on organization, process, and summary. The method can be used individually, in conversations, in meetings, and for reports to encourage comprehensive yet compartmentalized thinking from multiple perspectives.
The document discusses lateral thinking and problem solving techniques, including Edward De Bono's six thinking hats method for parallel thinking and creative problem solving. It provides examples of focus, harvesting, and treatment tools for generating new ideas and exploring alternatives when solving problems. The six hats framework involves assigning different colors to represent distinct thinking perspectives that can be "worn" to approach problems in an indirect and creative manner.
Beyond Brainstorming: Tools for Better Thinking & CreativityTrevor Fox
This presentation introduces tools for improving thinking and creativity in meetings and brainstorming sessions. It discusses common problems with meetings like a lack of focus and no clear next steps. The presentation promotes the use of The Six Thinking Hats and Lateral Thinking tools. The Six Hats framework structures discussions to consider issues from different perspectives in a logical sequence. Lateral Thinking tools like Random Entry are meant to generate more novel ideas beyond typical brainstorming. Examples show how these tools can be applied to evaluate business strategies and spark new ideas.
This document provides an introduction to the Six Thinking Hats framework developed by Edward de Bono. The Six Hats include White (facts), Yellow (optimism), Black (caution), Green (creativity), Red (intuition), and Blue (process control). Each hat represents a different thinking perspective or role. The framework is intended to separate types of thinking, avoid groupthink, promote parallel thinking, and structure conversations and decision making. The document outlines the purpose and use of each hat, provides examples, and discusses considerations for effective versus ineffective implementation of the Six Hats approach.
The document provides guidance on how to effectively conduct a brainstorming session. It emphasizes that brainstorming works best with a diverse group of people, an energetic and well-structured process, and by focusing on generating as many ideas as possible without criticism. The document also stresses the importance of preparation, including providing background on the topic to help spark ideas, and concludes by noting the value of evaluating, sharing, and building on the ideas that are generated.

The document discusses the Six Thinking Hats method for instructional design. It represents six different types or directions of thinking with different colored hats: white for facts, black for problems, red for intuition, green for creativity, yellow for benefits, and blue for process management. For each hat, it provides examples of how an instructional designer could apply that type of thinking to analyzing content, assessing risks, generating ideas, justifying approaches, and planning the project workflow. The overall process encourages exploring all perspectives at once to make balanced, well-informed decisions.
Elements of rational management involve planning as the key stage to fulfill a goal or project. Planning details several perspectives for initial control of stages using critical thinking skills to determine an outcome. All business organizations use planning as the beginning process to transform an idea into an action reality. Creative, logical, and deductive thinking are three styles used to solve problems and make reasoned decisions. While different in their processes, all three contribute to effective critical thinking.

Putting Design Back into Instructional DesignCammy Bean
The document discusses putting design back into instructional design. It defines design as a rational, logical process intended to solve problems and create plans. Good design should have purpose and make people feel human. Instructional design processes like ADDIE are discussed, as well as design thinking approaches. The document argues that instructional design is missing design qualities like empathy, experimentation, intuition and emotion. It provides tips for better elearning design such as understanding the problem, considering systems, observing not assuming, making designs touchable and intuitive, and focusing on people.
A must read for all creatives who suffer that usual struggle with the initial part of the creative process: Brainstorming. Also for people interested to know how ideas are generated and how human mind responds to creativity challanges.
The document summarizes Edward De Bono's book "Six Thinking Hats" which presents a method for group discussion and decision making. The method involves assigning a colored "thinking hat" to represent six different perspectives: white for objective facts, red for emotions, black for caution, yellow for optimism, green for creativity, and blue for organization. By switching between hats, groups can examine ideas from different angles to make better decisions. The hats help structure discussions, avoid bias, and allow for parallel thinking to fully explore all aspects of an issue.
This document discusses various pre-ideation and ideation methods:
- Pre-ideation methods include slicing large challenges into smaller pieces using techniques like the Six Thinking Hats and attribute listing. This allows ideation to focus on more manageable parts of the challenge.
- Ideation methods for generating ideas encompass brainstorming, brainwriting, and 10 plus 10. Additional methods like bodystorming and using cards add depth and diversity.
- Methods for understanding, clustering and ranking ideas include octopus clustering, Benny Hill sorting, idea portfolios and decision matrices.
- Techniques for reducing options include quick voting and physical commitment activities.

The document discusses the Six Thinking Hats framework developed by Edward de Bono. It involves looking at decisions from six perspectives represented by colored hats: white for facts, green for creativity, yellow for optimism, black for caution, red for feelings, and blue for process control. Each hat corresponds to a type of thinking - rational, speculative, positive, negative, intuitive, and procedural. Using the hats helps ensure decisions are examined from different angles to avoid biases and result in more informed solutions. The framework is used in business and education to improve critical and lateral thinking.

Mind mapping is a visual note-taking technique that involves arranging key words, ideas or concepts radially around a central theme. It encourages spontaneous thinking and creativity. Mind maps can be created using pen and paper or digital mind mapping software. They are useful for note-taking, studying, brainstorming and problem-solving by allowing the user to see connections and patterns between ideas. Guidelines for effective mind mapping include starting with a central theme, using images and colors, printing keywords rather than sentences, and constantly revising and adding new ideas to the map.

With lowering trust from the citizens, employees pushed to the length of their engagement and an organisation trying to compensate the lack of results with their overall purpose by micromanagement, the Swedish employment agency needed to find a new way forward for the organisation.
The solution was to educate and put front line staff in the lead role of service development, which was the starting point of a crucial cultural change throughout the entire organisation. The demand for support within business development and cultural change has become a natural part of evolution of service design.

The Hotel Spot project proposes a flexible hotel system of transportable "pods" that can be easily moved to locations based on demand. This allows rooms to have higher usage providing balanced income. The pods connect local businesses to guests based on personal profiles, matching desires with local offerings. A multi-sided platform grows value by integrating partner knowledge to facilitate guest-community interaction, benefiting both. The service learns guest preferences over time to refine suggestions on events and locally-run activities and restaurants, connecting guests to each other and the local community.

The rise of digital technologies and online platforms has enabled the creation of new business models that leverage the power of mass collaboration and sharing. Technologies like YouTube, Wikipedia, Facebook and others allow large numbers of people to work together and share content in new ways. This has given rise to entirely new categories of businesses like video sharing and social networking that were previously unimaginable.
This document discusses how design thinking can be a tool for innovation and change in business strategy. It provides context on the relationship between design, business, and education. It also discusses trends like the growing creative economy, emphasis on well-being, and how technology is changing organizations and enabling new forms of collaboration. The document argues that design thinking can help transform organizations to take greater account of environmental and societal impact through more holistic and systemic approaches.
The document discusses design strategy and its relationship to business strategy. It defines design strategy as deciding what to create with a long term perspective of 3-5 years, taking a systemic view. A design strategist works at the intersection of design, research insights, and business strategy, translating insights into solutions and connecting design efforts to business goals. The key is to scope opportunities, define consumer value, focus on generating real business value, and develop tactics to achieve strategies. Design thinking and strategic design management can be used to innovate and create superior customer experiences that drive business success.

- It describes brainstorming, both individually and in groups, as well as steps for effective group brainstorming. Additional techniques covered include triggered brainwalking, questioning assumptions, picture prompts, SCAMPER, observation, referencing, interaction, imagination, dreams, and creative aerobics.
- The goal of ideation is to generate the best solution to satisfy customer needs, rather than a large number of ideas. Effective techniques encourage lateral thinking and building on others' contributions to develop original, creative solutions.
This document discusses the 6 Thinking Hats method of parallel thinking created by Edward de Bono. The 6 Thinking Hats method involves assigning different colored hats to different modes of thinking (e.g. red hat for emotions, black hat for caution). Participants discuss an issue by each donning the same colored hat at once to focus thinking in that mode, before switching hats. This allows for constructive, creative exploration of an issue while removing ego. The document outlines the advantages of parallel thinking with hats, how to apply the method in thinking, meetings, and presentations, and provides an example of its use.
The purpose of this toolkit is to use a brainstorming technique to come up with creative ideas respond to the challenge of providing aftercare support for vulnerable learners. To use the ideas from the brainstorming session to inform the development of a draft set of ideas for an aftercare strategy.
The document describes the affinity diagram tool. It defines an affinity diagram as a tool that organizes large amounts of language data into groupings based on relationships. The steps to create an affinity diagram are: 1) generate ideas, 2) display ideas randomly, 3) sort ideas into related groups, 4) create header cards for each group, 5) draw the finished diagram. Practical exercises are provided to apply the affinity diagram process to topics such as improving readiness or information flow.

Each step is described in one or more chapters. The process provides techniques to increase creativity, deal with ambiguity, apply creativity to business problems, define challenges, drive curiosity, prepare environments and minds, generate ideas, and bring ideas to life.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

When an organization sets out new goals and
directions it is crucial that their members fully

opportunities to which you might otherwise be blind.
When we think in the “normal way”, we try to do too
much at once. We may be looking at the information,
forming ideas, and judging someone else’s ideas all
at the same time. The Six Hats method allows us to
unbundle thinking. Instead of trying to do everything at
once, we separate out the different aspects of thinking.
This way we can pay full attention to each aspect in
turn.
5. What? Clarity, Direction & Commitment
The workshop should in the end have resulted in:
• Clarity of the goal.
• Initiate cross function collaboration.
