Enabling Team Based Critical Thinking

Organisations operating during times of ‘extreme change’, experience significantly more stress than during ‘business as-usual’. This is because there is increased pressure on the decision-making capability of the teams, as decisions often need to be made where there is:

Incomplete or conflicting Information

High levels of scrutiny

Compressed timeframes

Significant impacts

They need the capacity to respond well to change is which heavily dependent on adaptive decision-making.

Enabling team-based
Critical Thinking

Our 7 step process is currently used by leaders to help them through critical decision points when there incomplete or conflicting information, high levels of scrutiny, consequences and compressed time-frames.

The seven-steps draw upon a combination of strategic and critical thinking skills from teams and provides thought diversity in problem solving.

The steps allow teams to leverage their individual skills to enable team-based critical thinking.

Team-based Critical Thinking Culture

Effective team-based critical thinking is reliant on a strong culture of trust, a willingness to listen, the courage to contribute and a commitment to following the process.

Key characteristics include:

Leadership – ability to participate and lead ideas or themes

Integrity – to behave in a way that builds trust and fosters collaboration

Authenticity – to be willing to accept and share personal bias or constraints

Self-awareness – to understand personal strengths and areas for improvement

Effective communications – willing to listen and speak succinctly and respectfully

Creativity – ability to bring fresh perspectives and new ideas

Commitment to excellence – including attention to detail

Commercial acumen – understand the key drivers for the business

When individuals and teams can exhibit these characteristics and skills, there is a greater propensity for the team to ‘cut through’, reach consensus and drive positive outcomes.
