Critical Thinking

Critical thinking is a purposeful and organized mental process that is used to understand the whole organizational system or a specific process as a whole; meaning the full upstream, stream, downstream as well as feeder sources.

The critical thinking process is what's going to differentiate leaders and the solutions developed versus rushing off without any thought at all.

Leaders MUST shape the learning of others through experiences that reinforce desired behaviors and actions to prevent wasted effort. Leaders help members identify and avoid prior pitfalls while engaging some of the previously involved members to help challenge the thinking.
