Overview
"The quality of our thinking will determine with quality
of our future" Edward de Bono
Early in the 1980's de Bono developed the 6 Hats framework for
thinking. There are six imaginary thinking hats, hat having a different
color. Each of the 6 hats represents a different type of thinking.
When you "put on" one of the hats, you exclusively operate
in that mode of thinking.
