Why attend a de Bono Training Course? “We need perceptual thinking, creative thinking and design thinking: none of these is part of our traditional system of logic and analysis.” Edward de Bono, the father of Lateral Thinking
Dr. de Bono has been credited with producing thinking techniques that are simple, practical, and powerful. His Six Thinking Hats®, Lateral Thinking™, and Direct Attention Thinking Tools (DATT™) training courses are now being implemented in organizations of all sizes because of their simplicity and their power to change thinking behavior, increase productivity, foster team-building, and evoke profitable innovation. SimplicityTM courses enables companies looking to un-complicate their business processes and thus, their lives. Six Value MedalsTM concepts provide a framework for making decisions that will deliver maximum value.
