Summary

English instruction is available for customized seminars only
Detailed information about this seminar in French

Far from appealing to the creative nature of people, the traditional thinking systems give rise to argumentation and critique. Dr. de Bono developed the concept of “parallel thinking” which allows participants to organize their thinking into six different points of view or modes that are characterized by the six different thinking colors (hats).

Managers and professionals need to overcome traditional thinking and clarify their focus, find new solutions and engage the thinking of all in order to achieve maximum efficiency. The Six Thinking Hats® represent a simple and effective formula to achieve these goals.
