How to Implement the Six Thinking Hats in Business Leadership?
1. Identify the Issue: Clearly define the problem or decision at hand. 2. Assign Hats: Determine which hat to use first and in what sequence. This can vary depending on the nature of the issue. 3. Facilitate Discussion: Encourage team members to adopt the perspective of the assigned hat. Ensure that each perspective is thoroughly explored. 4. Rotate Hats: Move systematically through the different hats, ensuring that all perspectives are considered. 5. Summarize and Decide: Use the insights gained from each hat to make a well-rounded decision.
