In an effort to help individuals and businesses sharpen their perceptions and focus their thinking in more effective ways, de Bono (De Bono's Thinking Course) has proposed a new concept of thinking. He emphasizes the development of perception rather than logic to provide broader, more inclusive viewpoints in the areas of problem solving. He emphasizes the use of lateral thinking to help disrupt the usual thinking sequences and arrive at solutions from other angles. Asserting that these skills can be learned, de Bono provides exercises and examples to develop thinking skills. Excellent for leaders and teachers looking for creative ways to view the present and future.
