Team Problem Solving: Six Thinking Hats

The average manager attends 3-4 meetings per day. Estimates tell us nearly 50% of that meeting time is wasted. This translates into 30-40 hours per month of wasted time (4 work days). Because time is one of the most important resources organizations unable to manage meeting time will remain uncompetitive.
Managing meetings is one of the most important competencies for making decisions, achieving goals, and motivating others. Combine the ability to run an effective waste-free meeting with the ability to be proactive by both solving problems and preventing them and you have a powerful combination for improvement.
Six Thinking Hats is a practical, fast paced, fun, interactive and remarkably effective tool that can be used by any leader to help a team create innovative solutions by thinking more effectively and cooperatively about problems. It is a practical and uniquely positive approach to making decisions and exploring new ideas in a team.
