Do you find it easy or difficult to take decisions?
Tell your teacher about the last major decision you took. What factors did you
consider before taking your decision?
Has anybody ever told you to “think outside the box”? What do you think that
means?
Have you ever heard of Edward De
Bono’s Six Thinking Hats? If so, explain
what you know already.
Do you recognise the hats from meetings you’ve had with your colleagues?
Which hat do you normally wear?
1) You work for a bank. The president has proposed closing all branches and
moving 100% online. What are the pros and cons?
2) Your boss has just told you that your company must save money. You must
cut 20% from next year’s budget. What can be done?
3) Your HR manager has asked you for help. Too many people are quitting
the company. What can be done to reduce staff turnover?
4) The government wants to go 100% carbon neutral. How can this be
achieved?
