Critical Thinking Training

Training and Workshops

The demand for critical thinking is documented. Successive editions of the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report have placed critical thinking and analysis among the skills employers most require.

The Thinking Centre’s critical thinking courses are carefully designed, academically grounded and strongly focused on application. They are not courses in which participants merely read information, remember definitions and complete a test.

 

Participants are expected to examine ideas, analyse situations, question assumptions, evaluate possible explanations, and apply their learning to decisions and problems encountered in life and work.

 

Individualized attention is a defining feature of our courses. Many adult learners have told us that this is precisely what they find missing from conventional training.

 

We deeply respect our participants. No one will be left to struggle without appropriate guidance and support. Where needed and appropriate, optional clinics or individual consultations may also be offered.

 

We also believe that serious learning can—and should—be enjoyable. Our courses therefore include engaging stories, practical exercises, stimulating discussions and opportunities to explore ideas in ways that are both intellectually challenging and personally meaningful.

Critical Thinking for Leaders: Deciding Well in Complex Times

Leadership carries its own complexities: small systems, close networks, global pressures. This seminar develops the reasoning discipline leaders need to decide well within them.  It helps leaders examine assumptions, weigh competing interests and make sound decisions—even when the information is incomplete and the consequences are significant.

Beyond the Script: Critical Thinking for Customer Care

Service standards tell staff what to do. They rarely tell them what to do when the situation falls outside the standard. This seminar develops the judgement behind good service: reading a situation accurately, weighing what the customer actually needs, and deciding well without a supervisor in the room.
