What you'll learn
Thinking can be more enjoyable than confusing if you have the right categories to create a road map from problem to solution. Edward de Bono’s classic book outlines a technique for clear thinking that’s manageable enough that anyone can use it, and playful enough to sidestep ego. The approach has been implemented in education systems all over the world. It’s useful for improving your own thinking or creating a company culture that will get everyone on the same page.
