Six Thinking Hats Review
De Bono has written and conceptualized a book with great ideas and actions that teach us to look at different angles of a decision making process. In the western culture we tend to argue for what we believe is correct, but De Bono states that we should seek all angles of attack. Everyone (whether for or against the situation) approaches the statement with a total of 6 different mindsets all working towards one goal. With this approach, all topics have been explored and everyone is "thinking on the same page". In doing so, the best decision is typically made with a significant amount of time saved for other topics of discussion.
Highly recommend this book if someone is seeking a more efficient way to run meetings and organizations. Instead of the typical argumentative approach, it now transforms into a cooperative thinking that lays out all scenarios. In turn it reduces the drama affiliated with the art of debate.
Other than that, The Six Thinking Hats is an enjoyable read that is easy to teach to others who are unfamiliar with the technique presented. The only downfall to this book is the excessive use of examples which become a little overwhelming that could persuade an individual to begin "skimming" the book. However, this is so small as compared to the theories that can help any team save time and effort.
