Maltese physician
POPULARITY
In a bid to help our coachees generate new thinking, it might be useful to introduce them to a coaching tool called ‘The Six Thinking Hats', which was created by Dr. Edward De Bono, a Maltese physician who is probably best known for introducing the world to the concept of lateral thinking. In this podcast episode we explore what ‘The Six Thinking Hats' offers to the world of coaching and give our thoughts on why it is such a useful model to generate new thinking and new perspectives in the coaching room. We even play out a little vignette of a coaching session for a GP looking to introduce a new initiative into her practice. I don't think we'll be winning any awards for our acting, but it might help to hear how the thinking hats could be used. Edward De Bono's hats were, of course, metaphorical, but the use of actual hats is always optional. Enjoy the podcast?

(NOTAS Y ENLACES DE LA ENTREVISTA AQUÍ: )No es habitual empezar una entrevista hablando de perfiles generalistas y terminarla con una obra tan excelsa como el Pollo Pepe. Y menos aún si por el camino hablamos del sistema educativo, de cómo nos transforma la paternidad y cómo nos ayuda a entender a nuestros padres, de futuros imperfectos y de estoicismo o de liderazgo.Pero es que esto es lo que me suele suceder a mí cuando me siento a charlar con el invitado del capítulo de hoy. Su currículum es prácticamente imposible de resumir, así que sólo diremos que Guillermo de Haro ha combinado su pasión académica con una exitosa carrera empresarial. Es doble doctorado, en economía e ingeniería, ha trabajado en empresas de software, de tecnología, de comercio minorista y hasta de la industria del entretenimiento y hoy es Vicedecano en la escuela de Ciencia y Tecnología de la IE University. Es autor de multitud de artículos y de varios libros, entre otros uno a medias con un viejo conocido de este podcast: Javier González Recuenco. Pero más allá de todo eso, Guillermo tiene una curiosidad insaciable que demuestra en cada una de sus respuestas. De hecho, confieso que me quedé con la sensación de que cada pregunta que hice habría dado para una entrevista en sí misma y que apenas arañamos la superficie de su conocimiento. Aún así, espero que nuestra charla sea una invitación a descubrirle y a aprender más de él. Y, si te gusta la entrevista dímelo, que siempre puedo intentar liar a Guillermo para repetir. ¿Te gusta kaizen?

Marissa is responsible for overseeing the continued evolution and implementation of Verizon's Sustainability Strategy as well as its enterprise wide relationships across its sustainability portfolio. She focuses on operationalizing Verizon's internal and external commitments while tracking its progress across the enterprise to ensure holistic management in the areas of sustainability and driving profitable growth. Prior to joining Verizon, Marissa was with the Department of Defense in Washington DC, leading Climate Policy and Interagency engagement. She served as the climate policy advisor to the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Energy, Installations and Environment. She has held a number of progressive roles within the White House and Pentagon, including Director for Climate Adaptation and Resilience, Climate Program Director for the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of the Navy. From 2006-2014, Marissa served in various leadership roles at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, including the Office of the CFO and the Tribal Affairs Office. Marissa McInnis Joins Sustainable Nation to Discuss: How to institutionalize sustainability at a large global organization Verizon's approach to ESG reporting and highlights from the latest report Verizon's renewable energy goals Advice and recommendations for sustainability professionals Marissa's Final Five Questions Responses: What is one piece of advice you would give other sustainability professionals that might help them in their careers? I always advise people who ask me to think outside your circle. A lot of sustainability and climate educated professionals tend to stay within that bubble or that circle. I encourage you to talk to your facilities lead. I encourage you to talk to your supply chain lead. Think about the areas within the organization where you may be already doing that sustainability work and you're not counting it, or you're not communicating it across or replicating it. Think outside your circle. What are you most excited about right now in the world of sustainability? When you think about sustainability and climate from the climate perspective, you have mitigation where you're reducing emissions and then you also have adaptation and resilience where you're really looking to climate-proof your business. The lifting up of that adaptation and resilience side, especially given my background, that's what I worked on predominantly over the last 17 years, it's that side of it. I really am excited about how people are paying attention to it and businesses are paying attention to it. Alongside that, thinking about the co-benefits. That's kind of a buzzword that's happening right now, but what also reduces emissions plus helps with that adaptation resilience problem. Then finally the biggest one is just thinking about sustainability from this cross-cutting lens like I was talking about. Talking to folks that you wouldn't normally talk to. Sometimes it's hard. At the Pentagon, for a long time I was one of the younger people there and there were a lot of grumpy older facilities folks that I had to talk to. But it ended up being such a valuable conversation. We ended up working together to update building codes according to new climate projections. So you never know where you're going to find that value.That's why you have to keep reaching out. What is one book you would recommend sustainability leaders read? I just finished Six Thinking Hats by Edward De Bono, and it's all about how you can think about a problem and think about framing it. It takes any type of negative association or emotion off of one individual person and allows for really brilliant group think. You think about the white hat, it's neutral and objective. So you could say to someone in your group during your brainstorm, “Hey, put on a white hat,” and it takes away the personal and brings it up to a group level so that folks can think about it from that front. Yellow Hat is sunny and positive. The one hat that I try to use that I don't normally put on first is the Black hat, which is careful and cautious, the devil's advocate hat. I've really used it a lot and encourage folks to read it. What are some of your favorite resources or tools that really help you in your work? Anything by Tensie Whelan, read it, absorb it. And I'm a little bit biased here because I helped develop a lot of this material, but I also l use a lot of the US government federal climate resources. If you go to climate.gov and use the Climate Resilience Toolkit, a lot of the work that I've done over the past 15 years is there. Looking at the maps, seeing where you can, especially with a company with a global footprint, think about where your biggest risks are from climate related hazards, it's really easy to do using public verified peer reviewed data. Where can our listeners go to learn more about you and the sustainability work being done at Verizon and check out the new ESG report? If you go to verizon.com there's a search box at the top. You can search sustainability and it goes into a resource page specifically for climate sustainability related goals. We also have our ESG report up there and you can see what we're doing from water conservation, renewable energy, our net zero goals, and also how to get involved within your community.
Welcome to 5 Minutes of Peace, a time for you to reflect, recharge, and renew. Today's reading is from "Practical Thinking" by Edward De Bono, exploring the multi-faceted nature of imagination. De Bono identifies four key aspects of imagination: picture vividness, number of alternatives, different perspectives, and creative imagination.1. Picture Vividness: This is the ability to imagine scenes and people with rich detail. Imagine your Aunt Emma so clearly that you can see her nose twitching, or recall a fishing harbor from a holiday with every boat vividly in place.2. Number of Alternatives: This involves generating multiple ways to approach a task, like cooking an egg. It's not just about knowledge but accessing it creatively to find numerous possibilities.3. Different Perspectives: Seeing things from various angles, like viewing a bottle as half full of milk, half empty, or a mix of milk and air, showcases the flexibility of thought.4. Creative Imagination: This is about fantasizing and creating new experiences by combining different elements, thus crafting something entirely unique.Imagination fuels creativity and helps avoid the trap of "unique rightness" where one believes their sole perspective is correct. It enhances thinking but isn't synonymous with creativity; it's an essential component.Thank you for sharing these moments of peace with us.

Welcome to season two of creativity unpacked. I'm kicking off season two with a bang and bringing you the legendary internationally recognised designer and author Kevin Finn. Kevin is also an old friend of mine from our days at advertising agency Saatchi & Saatchi and it was so wonderful to jump in the studio and have this chat with him. In this episode we not only unpack some epic projects Kevin has done - like the work he did for Edward de Bono but to me it's really clear that Kevin's whole life is a creative project. I am so fascinated by the way he zigzags, he takes huge leaps and risks and never ever follows a trodden path. I think he's such a pioneer. If you're someone who's feeling a little lost at the moment or maybe there's that voice inside that's quietly telling you that there's something else you should be doing or maybe a creative project that you should be starting, you're going to get a lot from this episode and Kevin's advice. You can find Kevin at https://thesumof.com.au and you can purchase his new book Brand Principals at Booktopia You can find me at The Ideas Bodega or Nicole Velik on LinkedIn
Hoy enfocamos nuestra #ActitudCaminoAlSol a la frase: "Encontrar la solución correcta requiere de una combinación de pasos que muchas veces van más allá de lo establecido". Encontrar la solución correcta a menudo requiere una combinación de pasos que trascienden las normas convencionales y los caminos trillados. A menudo, enfrentamos desafíos y problemas que no pueden ser resueltos siguiendo un enfoque estándar o siguiendo una única vía predefinida. En la vida, en tus relaciones y entorno laboral, puedes resolver los problemas de dos maneras. La primera, mediante un razonamiento lógico, lineal y racional. La segunda, usando un enfoque al que el psicólogo y filósofo Edward De Bono denominó pensamiento lateral. Consiste en ofrecer soluciones innovadoras y reflexivas que van más allá del clásico procesamiento deductivo. Pensar a través de la lateralidad es el sustrato de la creatividad y una habilidad que todos podemos potenciar. Es atreverse a sortear lo previsible para hacer de la imaginación y la intuición tus mejores aliadas.
New Ep is up! Today we have our first returning guest, Dr. Amy Finkelstein, economics professor at MIT, co-author (with Liran Einav) of today's subject, the book We've Got You Covered: Rebooting American Health Care, but also co-author of Risky Business: Why Insurance Markets Fail and What to Do About It, the subject of an interview from earlier this year.Amy and her co-authors are experts in insurance generally, and health insurance specifically. I mention that because in the interview I rave about this being a textbook example of Edward De Bono's lateral thinking and blank page creativity, which seem to come most often from “outside the box.” What I meant by that was as much as she's studied health insurance, Amy hasn't worked in the health care industry for 20 years or worked in public policy in Washington. So, from that perspective, I suggest she lacks institutional bias and has an outsider's advantage.The title undersells what the book is offering, which is a blueprint for, I believe, the best way to run health care in America, which is universal coverage with free, basic coverage for all. That's a tease, there's so much more to it, and the book provides evidence from around the world including not just countries from Europe to the UK and Norway to Singapore and Australia, but also states like Massachusetts and Oregon, to support the authors' research. And, I know I always say this, but in this case it's especially true because of the enormity of the subject matter, but you do really have to read the book. With that said, the most elegant solutions are often the simplest, and by that measure, Amy and Liran have crushed it again. The solution, the final product if we could start from scratch, is amazingly straight forward. One more thing to entice you into reading the book. If you start from first principles as the authors did, you find that there is actually a lot more consensus on the building blocks of this recommended framework from the right, left, and middle, than there is disagreement. Other than me screwing up the term “supplemental” insurance and instead saying “premium” a couple of times, it's a clean interview, thanks to Amy's mastery of the subject. If you can overlook that error, and apologies for any confusion that causes, you're going to leave the interview miles ahead of your friends, family, and work associates on the subject. But don't be greedy. Share it with all of them! And send it to you representatives in Washington.Read more about Amy here, and coauthor Iran Einav on X.

Selling is not a symmetrical process. It's far from it. Once a seller makes a connection with a business thats when the hard work starts but it's important that to understand that most of the hard work should be done before the selling even starts. This podcast covers a methodology to consider when you are looking at the other person's(the buyer) perspective. Edward De Bono was a physician, physiologist, writer and inventor and apparently a deadly man from the 45m too (in house GAA joke) Much of this methodology will make sense if you find yourself in the middle of a complex buying process.

Edward de Bono fue un médico, psicólogo, autor e inventor maltés. Él originó el término pensamiento lateral, escribió el libro Seis sombreros para pensar y fue un defensor de la enseñanza del pensamiento como materia en las escuelas. Enseñó sus métodos de pensamiento a agencias gubernamentales, clientes corporativos, organizaciones e individuos. Impulsó el Centro Mundial para el Nuevo Pensamiento con sede en Malta, que aplicó herramientas de pensamiento al diseño de soluciones y políticas a nivel geopolítico. Hoy recordamos su sabiduría:“Si nunca cambias de opinión, ¿por qué tener una?”
This week, Lucinda flies solo in order to provide a short, sharp selection of creative ways to solve problems, including Edward De Bono's Thinking Hats technique, and random stimulation. KEY TAKEAWAYS The main difficulty of thinking is confusion - where we are all doing too much at once. Effectively this means that our emotions, logic hope, creativity and pessimism crowd in on us, which creates overwhelm. The blue hat is for leadership, the white hat represents data or factual, the green hat is creativity, the red hat represents emotion and heart, yellow is optimism and the black hat acts as judge Random stimulation is a wonderful way of coming up with a completely different idea.

Random Stimulation - Problem Solving Activity for fresh ideas 1. Define the subject of the problem e.g. Team Away Day 2. Choose random stimulation e.g. Tree 3. Free associate with the random stimulation e.g. Leaf, foliage, squirrel etc 4. Make links between the free associations and the problem/subject e.g. Foliage ...wreathmaking workshop 5.

Personal Development Tips told through Short and Sticky Stories
How to Use the Six Thinking Hats Theory Join Andy Palmer and Darren A. Smith in the sixth episode of the Weekly Training Booster. This episode was about the six thinking hats. Designed by Edward De Bono, these 6 hats help teams to solve problems with this incredible problem-solving tool. You can choose how you sequence the hats to get the best results. Find out how to apply the 6 thinking hats theory with this training booster You Can Read the 6 Thinking Hats Episode Transcript Below: Andy Palmer: Okay, good afternoon or good morning, depending on when you’re watching this. Welcome to MBM’s weekly training booster. This is number six; how the time flies when you’re having fun. Okay. Today is about how to use, and how to understand the Six Thinking Hats, the tool that’s been developed by Edward De Bono. For me, Thinking Hats is a super powerful way of helping unlock the potential and to support team thinking. So Darren, give us an overview of De Bono’s Six Thinking Hats. Darren A. Smith: It’s a way of problem-solving as a team. That’s its best application, I think, having used it for the last 20 years. It can really help a team to focus, without having to worry about being sidetracked on positioning themselves in the discussion, my opinions here, your opinions here. So it can really help a team to focus and solve a problem. And the Six Hats are various colors, they were created by, as you said, Edward De Bono, and I’d like to share them all with you. Andy Palmer: All right, good stuff. So what I’m going to ask you to do then is pick a hat, give us an overview of any one of them, anyone that comes to mind for you? Darren A. Smith: Well, let’s do the one that people would most heard of, which is the black hat. Andy Palmer: Okay, and what’s the black hat? Darren A. Smith: The black hat is being a naysayer or a negative Nellie as some people would call it. So you’re in a discussion, and the idea is that the team together wear each hat at a time, a metaphorical putting on a colored hat. So at this point, each member puts on the black hat altogether, and we have a problem to solve. And the problem might be that project XYZ isn’t working. And then what we do on a flip chart is write down all the problems with this project, “Well, it doesn’t work because Bob’s not engaged, the client doesn’t like it, we’re going to run out of money.” And we’d list all the problems, all the things that are going to go wrong, all the negativity. Andy Palmer: Good stuff. And I guess that then allows people to get those thoughts out of their head and, at the same time, manage their own perception that maybe they’re not being negative. They’re actually just trying to spot stuff that can happen, the risks that are going to be associated with the project, to then figure out if we need to accept, mitigate, transfer them, or whatever we need to do with them. So it’s a good way of unlocking that thinking where naturally the majority just don’t want to go to that black hat thinking. But this helps us to take us there. Darren A. Smith: And you can also imagine Bob and Ron in a room, and maybe Bob’s negative and Ron’s saying, “Oh, but we don’t want to be negative.” You can see the tussle going on. Whereas if we’d all agree to put on the black hat and we’re all negative together for a few minutes, great. Andy Palmer: All right, absolutely. Good stuff. All right. Pick another hat, what other colors and what [crosstalk 00:02:54]? Darren A. Smith: Okay, we’ll go opposite and we’ll talk about the white hat of the six thinking hats. Or, as we call it an MBM terms, the detective hat. And this is saying, “What do we not have? What facts and information should we go and seek in order to solve this problem?” So we don’t understand enough about the customer on this project, or we don’t have enough data, or we need to find out what the shopper thinks. That’s our white hat. Andy Palmer: Good stuff. And it’d be particularly useful when we’re trying to validate maybe the opportunity, or to consider if it’s even a goer, because we can’t make decisions without having the facts. We need to go and get them to allow us to make informed decisions. All right. Darren A. Smith: Yes. It’s a particularly good hat for… I’m at risk of mixing my metaphors and colors, but it’s good for the HBDI blues. If anyone’s done HBDI, you’ll know the blue guys love the facts; this is their hat. Andy Palmer: All right. Yes, that makes sense to me. Let’s put a link in the bottom of the video today for people are going, “HBDI, what’s that?” We’ll bring that to life as well. Albeit, let’s not go there right now. Okay. I’m going to pick a hat from the six thinking hats. I’ll pick the red hat. The red hat’s about… And actually, this does align to Hermann, more about feelings and hunches and intuition. Darren A. Smith: Yeah, so this is about giving the group permission. We all put on the red hat and for, let’s say, four, five minutes, “What are our feelings on this project?” “Well, I’m pissed off with Bob,” and, “Ron’s doing really well, but I fear this.” It allows us to put our feelings forward, and particularly as a British male, we’re not allowed to do that. But with the hat on, we can, which is great. Andy Palmer: Okay, fair enough. Yeah, and I think this is important for a number of reasons. One, because yes, we can look at projects as being one dimensional things. But actually they have impact on people, whether that’s internally, externally, maybe customers further afield, to consider those groups in a much, dare I say, detailed, much greater level of detail can be powerful. Darren A. Smith: Yeah, very true. Andy Palmer: All right. All right, so that’s our red hat, that’s our black hat, and our white hat. Pick another one for me? Darren A. Smith: Okay, so let’s talk about our green hat, and in MBM terms, it’s our entrepreneurial hat. It’s our creative ideas hat. So this is where us yellows in HBDI terms, or the right brain-ers, put this hat on and they go for it. So the group all put on the same hat and we list all the ideas that we’ve got to solve this problem. Now, one of the tools that you and I know works very well here, is random word tool, and again, we’ll put a link to that. But sticking with De Bono, this is all about how many ideas have we got? How many solutions? How many crazy thoughts to solve this bad boy? Andy Palmer: Yeah, we’re talking about a good level of brainstorming, getting it all out there, no idea’s a bad idea. Then we filter them, prioritize them, remove the duplication, and get down to the ones that are going to help solve our particular problem when we’re doing a problem-solving. Good. Okay, good. Tell me about the blue hat? Darren A. Smith: Okay, the blue hat is our policemen hat or our film director hat. It’s the process hat. So this is the hat we put on at the start and at a end of the sequence, I’ll come back to those in a moment. But at the start, before we all start putting on a red hat, or a white hat, or black hat, we have a process which says, “As a team, we’re going to do this for about 20 minutes, five minutes per hat”, let’s say. “We are going to evaluate at the end of the blue hat again.” And this is making sure that our journey is going to solve our problem. So the blue hat is about setting it up correctly, which hats are we going to use for how long, and then evaluating again at the end. So blue to blue with other colors in the middle. Andy Palmer: Lovely. Well, last but not least then, our yellow hat? Darren A. Smith: So our yellow hat is the opposite, I guess, of our naysayer black hat. The yellow hat is all about optimism. It’s all about, “Okay. What about if we found a hundred thousand pounds and threw that into the project, how could we solve it?” Or, “What if we all worked every day for the next 10 days, how would that work?” So we’ve got to try and split the ideas into the optimism. These hats are quite close, but optimism is the exact opposite of the black hat. Andy Palmer: Brilliant. All right. All right, it’s a great overview of how De Bono’s Six Hats can help facilitate our own thinking. And the bit that I really liked, depending upon the situation you’re in or the thing you’re trying to explore, you can select a sequence of hats. Sometimes it might be the blue, the red, and the green. Other times it might be all six. And as you talked about earlier, sometimes you might start with one hat and finish with that same hat, and do some other stuff in the middle. So while I don’t think we’re getting into all those different permutations and scenarios, maybe we can, again, add a link at the end of this video for people can then see how they can practically apply it. Darren A. Smith: We do have some sequences that we’ve written down in the link which we’ll put in. I’ll just share with you a couple that I’ve seen work really well. If you’re new to the Six Hats thinking, then I would take a blue hat, consider with your team, “We’ll do all the colors of the hats”, and finish with a blue. That seems to be the basic choice. When you get more advanced, you might just do blue, black, and white, and then blue again, that’s possible. And remember that this thing shouldn’t take that long. The hats, you only wear a hat for up to about five minutes. We’re not talking about hours of discussion. Andy Palmer: Great stuff. All right, fabulous, top tip. Let’s wrap it up there. We’re going to put some additional information in the link. Today’s video was about Edward De Bono’s Six Thinking Hats and how you can use them to solve problems and improve communication within teams. Darren A. Smith: Brilliant, thanks, Andy.

Today our expert guest is Michael J. Gelb, the world's leading authority on applying genius thinking to personal and organizational development. Michael is a pioneer in the fields of creative thinking, leadership, innovation, and executive coaching. He's a senior fellow at the Center for Humanistic Management and a member of the Advisory Board for Leading People and Organizations at the Fordham University Gabelli School of Business. He was honored as “Brain of the Year” (1999) by the Brain Trust Charity, including other recipients such as Steven Hawking, Garry Kasparov, and Edward De Bono. His 17 books have been translated into 25 languages and have sold over one million copies. When he read Viktor Frankl's “Man's Search for Meaning” at 14 years old, Michael became inspired to find purpose in helping others find meaning in their lives. There was a lot of division and racial tension, and Michael was looking for solutions — both for the world and himself. Being a consultant for businesses was the farthest thing from his mind at first, but as he studied, it slowly dawned on him that business was the most powerful force in the world. And by focusing on that, he could make the most significant impact possible. Michael felt his life intersect with Leonardo da Vinci in several ways. Earlier in his life, his grandmother, a painter herself, introduce him to da Vinci. Later, he and a colleague would talk about him at length. More and more, he began telling stories about da Vinci. After being invited to speak in Florence, he pitched the idea of speaking about how to think like Leonardo da Vinci. That gave him six months to figure it out before he had to speak! You can do this process with any figure you admire, whether that's a historical figure or someone you know. One of the most effective ways to develop yourself is to study others. If you want to follow the same steps Michael did to think like da Vinci, you have to ask the magic question: What are they trying to teach us? In the case of Leonardo da Vinci, when Michael read his work with that question in mind, he came up with: Endless curiosity: To get endless energy as an adult, you have to awaken your childlike imagination, marry it with your adult logic, and revitalize your curiosity. Try the “100 Questions” exercise. Give yourself around an hour, take out some sheets of paper, and without stopping to think, write 100 questions out. The hardest part is building up the energy to have a constant creative output. Once you practice it, coming up with ideas isn't that hard. What's hard is putting them into action and communicating them with other people. Demonstrate through your own experience: You must be an original thinker. The biggest challenge to independent thinking today is an overabundance of information. The best way to do this is to learn to think through essential ideas from at least three perspectives. Sharpen your senses, learn to appreciate beauty, and learn to make life more beautiful. When we appreciate beauty, we inform our creative expression. The Biggest Helping: Today's Most Important Takeaway “There is a source of creativity, a source of genius. It is the source of our awareness. If everyone just, at this moment, contemplates their response to the simple question, ‘Are you aware?' Obviously, immediately, you say, ‘Yeah, oh course.' And I say, ‘How do you know?' Where do you go to look to notice that you are aware? There's no place you go. You just are. And learning to access that source of awareness, which is always present — so when we talk about connecting with genius, it sounds like something you have to go through years of training and do all this — no, it's present right now. It's there for everybody. And then yes, there are ways to make ourselves more attuned to it, like the hundred questions, like the Qigong exercises I teach, like everything that's in all the books. But the main point is it's not something you don't have that you have to get. It's something you already have, and you just need to wake up to it.” -- Thank you for joining us on The Daily Helping with Dr. Shuster.

If you see any warning signs/symptoms that may be related to any of the topics I share as of in the future, please seek second opinion or treatment with a medical professional.. What I share with you in how I go about managing my autism will vary from person to person and that what may work for me, may not work for you and what will work for you may not work for me and vice versa. So, please be considerate while I give you all my advice and/or tips. A startling fact that you may or not be aware of that there's about 50% of people around the world that may not have been diagnosed with autism and it continues to grow every year. So, who am I? I am Aspie Answers as an alias name via most of my socials and that I am really passionate about mental health, science, autism, animals and nature and so much more. What do I do? I'm a young autistic female YouTuber, podcaster, author, advocate, navigator that will help you all to navigate through life. I am many of the six hats that were researched by Dr. Edward De Bono. Imagine these and that you will see what I mean if you really met me in person. My main focus for this podcast is quite simple really as this is similar to my channel which is going to solely focus on all things mental health and autism along with some of my lived experiences of some of the every day topics that we will be discussing. Why the name of Aspie Answers or more importantly how did you come up with it? As we know that there are many terms that have been interchanged over the years through science and research. This is like a colloquial slang medical term that means just someone with Aspergers. Well, Answers should be easy to see or to know why. I answer your everyday questions that you may have. How or what will my podcast be like? Imagine my podcast as a book or even just a comprehensive guide of some kind for easy listening and following.

Want to join the team to help get the word out? We'd love to have you join (and there are perks to be involved, too). You can sign up HERE.…On this episode we explore Edward De Bono's mental framework of what he calls the Six Thinking Hats. Each “hat” is a different mode or way to think about a problem or issue. To be resilient means we have to be able to think resiliently so we can lead resiliently. The six hats are:· The white hat is about facts.· The red hat is about feelings.· The yellow hat is where we think optimistically about what could be.· The black hat is where we think pessimistically of why something would not work.· The green hat is about ideas, alternatives and possibilities.· And the blue hat helps us think about our thinking, summarize what we've thought through and set goals for next steps.Edward de Bono's The Six Thinking Hats ***If you enjoy this podcast, can we ask a 45 second favor of you?

"La créativité implique de briser les conventions afin de regarder les choses sous un jour nouveau" (Edward de Bono). et si pour mieux comprendre et communiquer avec les autres, il fallait faire le tri et structurer notre flux de pensées. et si l'on apprenait à donner un ordre à nos différentes pensées ( émotion, information, logique, critique) pour être plus productif lors de nos échanges, et de nos réunions. Et bien c'est ce que nous propose Edward de Bono avec son ouvrage , les 6 chapeaux de la reflexion aux éditions Eyrolles. une méthodologie bénéfique aussi bien dans le monde professionnel et personnel. On en parle ce matin dans le 100ème podcast de la Manutinale.
In questo episodio riassumo i concetti chiave del libro "Creatività e Pensiero Laterale" di Edward De Bono.
Edward De Bono was one helluva guy. He invented the concept of lateral thinking. And he wrote a really, really cool book called the Six Thinking Hats. In this episode we run through how you can use this methodology to overcome conflict, blaze through problems with mighty solutions and even generate new and exciting ideas. Whether you find yourself arguing with others at work, at school, in your home or with your clients, this is an episode for the people. AKA just about anyone can pull their own noggin sparkler from this methodology. Essentially, De Bono's genius concept breaks down how to approach a touchy subject where brainstorming is involved, into six different ways of thinking. For us creative business owners, this comes as a HUGE wave of relief. No more 'me vs you' in arguments. In fact, the personal aspect is taken out all together.

“If you never change your mind, why have one?” asked Edward Charles Francis Publius de Bono, a Maltese physician and psychologist known as the father of lateral thinking. Here are some of the resources I used to create this episode: A Little Lateral Thinking – BBC Interview in The Guardian, 2007 Interview in The Times, 2003 British Subjects is produced by Anna Rose … Continue reading 29/52 Malta – Edward de Bono
In Today's 'Great Question' episode, we are looking at one specific question: 'What's your recommendation?' There is a surprising level of depth here, as this question alone illustrates very well a lot of the principles that underpin coaching. To make my recommendation to you a bit more balanced, I will talk about this question from different perspectives. The mental tool I will use for that is the '6 thinking hats' model by Edward De Bono (debonogroup.com/six_thinking_hats.php) 1) White Hat (talk about facts, data, information, neutrally) We use this question when a team member approaches us on a problem and we want to have a chance to hear what their stand is. We want to draw them out. 2) Yellow Hat (optimism, brightness, value, what's the benefit?) The question creates space and helps people feel invited to think for themselves and take a position. It also gives the Leader a breather and a way out...to prevent them from just sharing their opinion right out of the gate.Furthermore, if we do this consistently, we will reap a second-degree effect and value: your team member will bring you less and higher-quality and more thought-through requests and questions, simply because they don't want to be caught off-guard by that question of yours. Asking this question regularly is also a consistent and powerful way to build trust and confidence in our team members. 3) Black Hat (devil's advocate, what could go wrong? what's the downside?) Clearly, this question won't work in all instances. For example, if there is a black/white correct answer to a question that our team member asks, and we know the answer, but don't give it to them, then we will quickly be seen as passive-aggressive. And rightly so.We also have to be careful if we use this question with an employee who we have a low-trust relationship with. They won't be open to sharing their recommendation so easily, as they assume negative intent in us.The question might also expose team members who do not feel safe and make them close up. 4) Green Hat (alternatives, creativity, brainstorming, what else is possible?) Alternative approaches could be to ask: 'Given all you know at this moment, what comes first to mind for you?' 'I am curious, if you were in my position, what would you do?' David Marquet's approach (see his book "Turn the ship around") also offers an interesting way. He trained his people always to approach him with a clear intent that was the outcome of a decision they had made. It requires that people make a decision before approaching the Leader and are ready to back it up. 5) Red Hat (Feelings, no judgment) I really like the question as it is empowering on many levels. It is a great expression of trust if sincerely delivered. I personally liked it because it became during my Manager times one of the best tools to honor my team's thoughts and opinions. 6) Blue Hat (Action, Focus) What can we do with it? The next time when a team member and a colleague asks you for your help on a challenge they have, consider asking them for their recommendation first. Positive side effect: Most people love to be asked for advice. It opens doors and is a clear sign of respect. Good luck and I hope you will benefit from this simple question when you engage with your team members again! -Maik
In this episode we discuss the book Lateral Thinking by Edward De Bono to help understand the steps we can take from linear thinking towards multidimensional thinking. We also cover critical thinking, logical thinking and counterpoint thinking. De Bono has many exercises that can be used to push ones thoughts out of linear thinking into a more creative way of thinking and a clear understanding of this process is essential for mind development.
I've spent a total of seven episodes up till now on Edward de Bono's work on creativity, lateral thinking, and the workings of the mind. While reading his books, a number of criticisms arose in my mind which I never felt I had the chance to fully express. In the name of balance, I also looked for any criticisms of de Bono online, and I found some quite damning allegations. My criticisms from his books and these allegations are topics I would like to spend one episode talking about. The main problems with de Bono's books are two: (1) they are too repetitive (they all seem to say the same thing, with occasional novelties); and (2) they provide no references (ever! in 67 books by an Oxford- and Cambridge-educated author with a PhD!!). Each of these is concerning for different reasons. If de Bono kept "writing the same book" 67 times, why did he feel the need to publish so many books? And if he's supposed to be an authority on creativity, why couldn't he have come up with new ideas to fill those 67 books with? The problem of references appears even more concerning after reading allegations from de Bono's former associates that his work is practically all plagiarised. This would certainly explain his unwillingness to write references, since he would be trying to claim all those other people's work as his own. There is a real 此地无银三百两 moment at the start of one of his later books. (The Chinese reads "in this place there are not three hundred caddies of silver". There is a story that somebody tried to hide their money by burying it and, for good measure, putting up a sign with the above words just next to where it was buried. The saying means to deny something in such a way as to incriminate oneself, or reveal the very thing that was supposed to be hidden by denial.) He leaves an Author's Note to the effect that he is sorry for not referencing anybody, because he forgot, and he really wants to give the right people credit, honest!, he just can't remember any of the conversations he's had or things that he's read for the past, oh, fifty years. It's somewhat ridiculous and really adds fuel to the suspicion that he hasn't been intellectually honest in his works. This episode may not be rich in insights into creativity, other than perhaps that which Einstein bequeathed to us: "The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources." Although I really think that there is value to the ideas that de Bono came up with / stole during his career, the possibility of plagiarism, and the lack of his own creativity in writing books with something genuinely new to say over a more than fifty-year-long career, detract from the strength of his arguments. The jury is out on where de Bono's ideas come from (although he is definitely guilty of being repetitive in his writing). We must also be aware that those who allege that de Bono has stolen the ideas of others are not necessarily trustworthy themselves. While the story weaved together by these threads is plausible, it is not known for certain to be the truth. This episode seeks only to be fair in highlighting suspicions, although nothing is proven definitively. Enjoy the episode.
Edward de Bono has written a lot of books. Although they often contain small novelties, overall his bibliography is quite repetitive, meaning that it's not worth making an episode about every one of his books individually. In this episode, we'll look at six of his books in quick succession. It's the audio summary equivalent of "skimming" these books, which deserve little more if you're already familiar with the books of his we've considered so far on the podcast. First we look at the "six series": Six Thinking Hats, Six Action Shoes, Six Value Medals and Six Frames for Thinking about Information. The first of these we already saw in the first episode about Edward de Bono, and so there is no need to go into it again in depth, but it is clearly the ancestor of the rest. They all tend to say the same sort of thing, but in slightly different contexts. It's worth quickly skimming through this and then moving on, as there doesn't appear to be much novelty here, just the ability to produce too many sequels, like the Saw movies. Next we look at Teaching Thinking and Teach Your Child to Think. These are surprisingly underwhelming and not particularly useful. There is some "evidence" provided of the effectiveness of direct teaching of thinking which is completely unreferenced and not peer reviewed, and so, unless you consider the author unusually worthy of blind trust, you are forced to ignore this "evidence". The thinking methods taught in a typical Cognitive Research Trust class (CoRT, de Bono's organisation for teaching thinking) are presented, which is interesting, but also a bit of an anticlimax, as they don't seem to amount to anything particularly novel or special. Finally, we look at Simplicity, which is ironically more complicated a book than it need be. We can extract a long list of thinking techniques from it, with the occasional pearl, but the book as a whole is not worth diving into too deeply. Overall, this makes for an unusually fast-moving episode. This is simply because there isn't much to say per book, and I have no reason to waffle and waste your time. It should round out your knowledge of some of the rest of the author's work, and you might have a few useful takeaways here and there as well. Enjoy the episode.
We've already seen a number of books by Edward de Bono. I am Right, You are Wrong is (was?) probably my favourite book of his, but since it is such a synthesis of his ideas I wanted to save it for after books that discuss his "core" ideas in detail. Now, having done that, it turns out that there is little to say about this book, for the very same reason - as a synthesis, it doesn't provide very many new ideas. That said, there are 7 ideas from this book that I would like to share, as they provide perspectives not offered by other books of his covered on the podcast so far. Since these ideas all exist within the de Bono "system" or "worldview", it doesn't take very long to introduce them to people already familiar with his work, which, by now, you should be. So this is really a quick episode to talk about one or two more ideas from an already familiar author and to introduce what I think is his best book. Enjoy the episode. Music by podcastthemes.com.

Edward de Bono has long stressed the need to be open to the creation of new words in order to support the development of new concepts and ideas, even in areas not considered "cutting edge". For example, in his book Simplicity, he makes the case (not too convincingly) that the words "simple" and "simplify" are too long and complicated, and they should themselves be simplified to the word "simp", as in "We should simp this so it will be more simp." (Understandably, de Bono has his detractors when it comes to these neologisms.) "Po" is a new word. (To be fair, it was actually new in 1969 when he first mentioned it in The Mechanism of Mind, but every time de Bono refers to it he calls it "new"). It is somewhat unusual in that it is not a noun or a verb, as most neologisms are, but a grammatical particle, like "yes", "no", "and", "but" or "should". The form of the word comes from the initials of the phrase "provocation operation", but also happens to be the first two letters of a convenient list of words in English, such as poetry, possible, and ponder. Po is used in order to introduce a phrase or word that is not be be taken seriously, but merely to be used as an input to lateral thinking. Consider the following examples: "Po politicians should be encouraged to be tyrants." "Po children should be given sharp objects to play with." "Po the sky is red." Each of these ideas appears either crazy or non-sensical, but we can use them to gain new perspectives or think of new ideas. What if encouraging politicians to be as bad as possible would uncover the untrustworthy ones quickly so that they could be removed before they do too much damage? What if children were trusted with things we usually don't trust them with, so they learn more responsibility and get a taste of the real world? What if we could wear glasses that would invert all the colours that we see? I'm not saying that the above are necessarily all *good* ideas, just that they are outgrowths from the silly provocations deliberately presented to make me think in new ways, which I otherwise wouldn't have thought of. For most of this episode, I cover de Bono's general thoughts and the argument presented for why Po is important, rather than talking about the application of Po itself. This is discussed near the end, and doesn't take long to introduce. De Bono's arguments are worth engaging with, though, as they give us an unusual perspective on thinking, and let us realise why a word like po may be useful to creative thinking. Enjoy the episode.

In this episode, we will look closely at Edward de Bono's idea of lateral thinking by considering two of his books, The Use of Lateral Thinking (1971) and Lateral Thinking: A Textbook of Creativity (1977). Lateral thinking is the central idea behind all of de Bono's work. It grows out of the models of mind that de Bono presented in his first book The Mechanism of Mind (1969), and was initially introduced in the second part of that book. De Bono coined the term himself, but now it is a commonly used word in the English language. De Bono argues that, although logical thinking is a powerful and important approach, it is not enough. Logical thinking cannot generate new ideas. Like a car with an accelerator but no steering wheel, pure logical thinking can only have us move down existing well-trodden paths, or keep moving forward in the direction we are already going. Lateral thinking, on the other hand, like a steering wheel, allows us to change direction. The very word "lateral" means "sideways", so lateral thinking is about moving "sideways" out of existing patterns to generate new perspectives. The author explains that lateral thinking is closely related to both insight and humour, something that was also explained in The Mechanism of Mind. It is all about perception and perspective. Although computers can do logical operations very well, computers cannot (at least for the forseeable future) laugh. This uniquely human trait is one facet of the human capability for change of perspective - the basic idea behind lateral thinking, and a latent human strength. Enjoy the episode.

Edward de Bono's work can mostly be divided into two parts: models of how the mind works; and applications of principles extracted from those models to improve thinking, particularly creative thinking. The Mechanism of Mind is his first book, and it primarily deals with the first of these two parts. De Bono wrote The Mechanism of Mind in 1969, at a time when not much was known about the brain, nor about complex adaptive systems (the types of physical objects and situations studied by the fields of mathematics and physics known as chaos theory, complexity theory, and dynamical systems). De Bono's key insight was to realise that the brain is a complex adaptive system, and to run with this insight to produce new insights into how human thinking works, how it differs from the working of computers, and how to make the most of it. The Mechanism of Mind introduces the reader to how de Bono thought that the brain probably worked when he was writing in 1969, by providing a series of analogies or "models" - the polythene-and-pins model, the jelly-and-ink model, and the thousand-bulb model. These aim to clarify the behaviour of the brain both in terms of what kinds of things the brain does, and how this behaviour arises from the brain's structure. His expectations from 1969 were surprisingly close to the overall understood behaviour of the brain (or, at least, small collections of neurons) according to modern neuroscience. Overall, the book serves as a stimulus to thought, and need not be believed in its entirety. It is, after all, one man's guess at how the brain worked based on what was known to science half a century ago. Nevertheless, his explanations do support a number of interesting propositions about thinking, with important consequences for the nature of creativity, which he explains in detail in his other books. Enjoy the episode. Music by podcastthemes.com.
Edward de Bono is an expert on creativity, author of over 40 books on the subject. He invented the term "lateral thinking" in the 1960s, which is now a part of common parlance. Over his long career, he has worked with numerous large corporations such as Microsoft, Apple, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Siemens, Bose, HP, LinkedIn, and Texas Instruments, as well as schools, charities, and governments. His basic premise is that creativity can be taught by direct teaching of thinking skills and techniques, and that this kind of thinking is not a normal part of culture, but that it should be. Controversially, although highly scientifically and mathematically trained, he does not work on scientifically validating his own ideas, only on trying to develop them and promote them, and on making them accessible to a general audience. However, his ideas are nothing if not interesting and original, and I am persuaded enough by much of what he writes that I find it sensible to share it on this podcast. He is also rather topical because of recent interest in the idea of direct teaching of thinking, which is often combined with the idea of imparting so-called "21st century skills" to schoolchildren. Cognitive scientists often insist that general thinking skills cannot be improved, and that we may only improve at thinking within some particular domain (though some skills are important within many domains, such as reading). For some reason, Edward de Bono never seems to be mentioned during these discussions - neither by those who are in favour of teaching thinking (who, you would think, would be fans of his), nor by those who claim that teaching general thinking directly is a fool's errand. This strange silence, as I perceive it, is something I would like to go some way to fixing. In this episode, I want to introduce Edward de Bono himself, as well as talk about one of his most famous and commonly applied ideas, the Six Thinking Hats, popularised by a book of the same name. In future episodes we will have a chance to dig more deeply into his work on lateral thinking, creativity, the nature of the mind, and direct teaching of thinking skills, among other things.

Summary & Ideas for Action Jim Gilmore, best-selling author and co-founder of Strategic Horizons LLP, discusses his experiences, books, and the importance of mastering the various modes of observation to innovate and improve decision making. Key Takeaways [6:50] Jim explains how he came to write Look. After studying Edward De Bono, he had an insight into thoughts, actions, and observations, which inspired him about six looking glasses to represent modes of observation. [11:27] The six looking glasses are: Binoculars, for surveying and scanning, Bifocals, for comparing and contrasting views, Magnifying Glass for pinpointing the main point, Microscope, for scrutinizing the details, Rose-colored Glasses, for seeing potential, and Blindfold, for recalling all you have seen. Together they help people see more of what there is to be seen. Observation is separate from cognition. [24:40] Watching people in groups and in detail can reveal unseen patterns of behavior that lead to innovation and disruption. [26:00] When film was an expense, people framed their photos carefully. We lose our sense of framing by shooting carelessly. We take too many shots to curate. Study a scene carefully and limit yourself to framing one shot. Apply this deliberation to business decisions. Apply it to life. [37:31] The more skilled you are at observing with the first five glasses, the better you will be at recalling blindfolded what you saw. If you don’t look well, you will recall poorly. The best glasses for a leader is to be skilled in using all of them. Particularly consider the bifocals. Pair opposites, and pair things as opposites. All innovation begins with observation. [45:44] Jim sat next to George Carlin on a cross-country flight in 2000. Jim learned how George Carlin worked and filed his observations. He said, everybody observes, but they don’t know where to put the data. George Carlin maintained 2,500 directories where he recorded his daily observations and he knew each category. Come up with a number of categories of things you want to be consciously observing.

MARKETING SALES & ADVERTISING EXCELLENCE - The Business Firm Marketing & Fundraising Show
In this episode, Steven Mario Cavallo explores the power of creativity as the source that has propelled humanity from the cave…to the stars. It is the cradle of all invention; the wonderment that moves the child’s hand to paint the pictures in their imagination; and it is the mind force from which emerges the greatest innovations in our world. From the improvised lullaby sung by a new mother to her child, to the convenience of driving across the Sydney Harbour Bridge, to the architectural marvels of ancient Rome; and to the ingenuity of the iPhone you hold in your hand…all of these things…in fact, all of everything…comes from creativity. As a subject, creativity has been studied for millennia by philosophers, politicians, artists, musicians and orators. In the modern context and as the driver of the most lucrative commercial achievements in the business world, creativity has been intensively researched by economists, marketers, technologists, cognitive scientists, educators, psychologists and manufacturers. It is the recognised catalyst for attaining market power, enormous wealth and has the capacity to transform an economy. Today on the international stage we see some of the greatest growth coming from economies that have invested in developing creative thinking across industries and across society, in schools, in universities and in the workforce. The push for people to learn ‘how to be creative’ is pursued vigorously now by all types of organisations...and if you do not already have a formal programme to cultivate creativity and innovative thinking in your own business, then you are putting yourself and all the families that depend on your leadership, at risk. The originality and individuality intrinsic in creativity affords a competitive advantage that is not as easily copied by other firms in your industry. Your competitors might also develop their creativity, but they won’t have your particular creative abilities. The world is replete with genius, but in any particular industry the most creative, the most visionary, and the one that offers a true difference that is meaningful to its buyers...this firm often becomes the industry leader and can enjoy extraordinary profitability while the rest of the firms are left to compete on price alone as their sameness reduces their products to mere commodities. Case in point: Apple. Of course, there are a number of amazing programmes and methodologies in the world today that help an organisation develop its creative thinking capacity. Highly credible systems exist whereby frameworks are given for the creative thinking process. Some techniques are for use in groups and others on an individual basis. Some focus on idea generation, others on divergent thinking, some on reframing paradigms and a great number use randomness or aleatoricism to provide unforseen variety. Improvisation, which is at the core of jazz musicians, is a natural way to create massive and unique inventiveness that yields a slightly different ‘’product” with each production. But business executives often lack the creative brilliance of a jazz musician so instead prefer to use predefined, creative thinking systems that provide an existing structure they can use internally that is easy to follow and leads people through a process. Some of the best-known creative thinking frameworks are from Dr Edward DeBono (Six Thinking Hats system and the Lateral Thinking process); or the Brainstorming method (by Aex F Osborn); as well as the SWOT analysis (from the Stanford Research Institute) and Dr Stephen Covey’s ‘The Third Alternative’. All of these are powerful tools that can truly transform businesses and indeed, the outlook for a country. And some of these have found their way into mainstream educational curricula and are preparing an entire generation to naturally follow a creative thought process. In fact, in the private school my kids go to, they use the Six Thinking Hats as an integral part of their everyday learning to instil a multi-perspective approach to problem solving. Mmh…perhaps this explains why our buys are SO good at annoying their Mum and Dad on so many levels! Then of course, as a business owner there are less formal ways to tap into the creative. I personally find that simple things like a walk in nature – along the beach where I live; or doing some exercise while listening to an inspirational podcast; or my putting half an hour aside to play the piano; or even holding my little daughter while she watches cartoons; or perhaps most effectively...doing some meditation to quieten the mind and allow the flow of creative ideas to rush into my head...all of these serve me greatly in generating creative thinking...which ultimately leaves me with a number of potential commercial and personal projects to consider. Of course, once you generate new ideas you then need to assess them in respect to their viability and then finally, to do something with them. This obviously leads into the product development process, which I’ve prevously covered in depth, so I won’t discuss in this episode, but clearly, is of vital importance to an organisation’s commercial survival – and is in fact, the other side of the coin to creativity. I strongly encourage you to listen to episode 101 of this podcast: Disruptive Innovation, Product Development, 10x Thinking with Dr Michael Hewittson-Gleeson from the School of Thinking, the father of 10x Thinking and a major teacher to Larry Page from Google – it is definitely, definitely worth listening to as it goes into great detail on how your business can profit from innovative, creative thinking and excellence in product development, which can give your business enormous market gains. That’s episode 101 of The Business Firm podcast in iTunes or on Stitcher Radio and as always, detailed show notes are available at www.thebusinessfirm.com.au (on the podcast page). I would like to give you the opportunity now to actually do an exercise in creative thinking – right here, right now in this podcast. If you are driving while you are listening to this, pause the podcast and pull over safely before attempting this – or come back to this again later. If you are doing exercise, perhaps slow down or stop entirely for a couple of minutes while you do this. You will need a pen and paper (or an iPhone or iPad) to write on. It’s important to give yourself permission to simply sit down comfortably, gently close your eyes and take five slow breaths in and out…and just relax for a few seconds. Now give yourself a big smile. Hold the smile and count to ten in your head then let the smile go. You are now ready. Open your eyes and look forward, softening your focus into the middle distance. First, a little test. While looking into the middle distance, take your finger, place it between your eyes and draw the letter Q on your forehead. There are only two ways you can do this: the tail of the Q can point either to your right eye or your left eye. Which eye did your Q tail point to? Your left or your right? There is a very big difference in the type of person whose Q points to the right and to type of person whose Q points to the left. I will direct you to the answer for this, a little later in this episode. Just remember which way yours pointed. Now, remaining in this relaxed state, we will try one creative thinking exercise. Now, I must warn you, almost no managers ever solve this, so you may find this difficult. It's a set of questions; here they are: How do you put a giraffe into a fridge? How do you put an elephant into a fridge? The King of the Jungle is holding a meeting for all of the animals. One of them is not there. Which one? You are standing at the bank of a crocodile infested river and have to get to the other side. What do you do? Now, if you had trouble solving these questions then you are likely trapped in the ordinary managerial mindset with its limitations and assumptions automatically built in to the problem solving process. And while such a mindset is great for breeding non-thinking conformists that abide to corporate dogma; this will not propel your organisation to leapfrog your competitors. You want your staff to think magical thoughts that can be developed into magical products and service. To a person in the 1950s, an 80s Walkman would have seemed like a magical, impossible device. To a person in the 80s, an iPhone 7 would have seemed a magic, impossible device. You need to free your own thinking from the belief systems endemic in modern business in order to think of tomorrow’s magical devices so you can then start working on making them possible. So while you may have had trouble solving those questions, almost all five year olds are able to answer them correctly. Why? Because they naturally have unlimited creative thinking not yet spoilt by the rigidity of common thought. Let’s look at the answers, one by one. How do you put a giraffe into a fridge? Open the fridge, put the giraffe inside and close the fridge. How do you put an elephant into a fridge? Open the fridge, take the giraffe out, put the elephant in and close the fridge. What animal is not at the meeting for all the animals? The elephant…because it is in the fridge. And what do you do on the bank of the crocodile infested river? You swim across the river because all the crocodiles are at the meeting. Clearly, sometimes a childlike, unbounded imagination is needed in order to escape your paradigm and think outside the box. This example shows how we automatically build in problem boundaries and make assumptions about limitations and it also shows how we jump to levels of complexity that blinds us to simple solutions. Nobody said the fridge wasn’t big enough to fit the giraffe! This example also shows us that we should consider previous actions. Nobody said that these were four separate questions. Now that we have forced upon the mind to broader possibilities, let me give you some questions that are directly related to your own business. In answering these, let your mind take a step or two back from normal reasoning so that you give yourself the lateral space to see both the fridge and the giraffe simultaneously. I’m about to ask you four questions for which I want you to write your answers. You might want to pause the podcast after each question so you give yourself the best chance or writing a creative answer. Ready? Firstly, in respect to your industry, what are three different things that would cause its rapid decline? Write these down. What three things can you do to survive such a decline if the industry were to collapse? When people buy from you, what is the end outcome they are seeking to achieve through their purchase and what are three ways that outcome can affect their life? Now, look at those three ways your customers’ lives are affected and for each, list three new inventions that would achieve those same outcomes for them. Think laterally and without bounds. All things are possible. The next step is to assess all that you have written down, but not now – do it in a couple of hours time; then again tomorrow after you have slept overnight. Don’t worry about whether your business can accomplish them – instead, write down three different ways that each of them might be accomplished. Leave the door open to all possibilities, even if you think there is no way of doing it. The ‘how’ will come to you once you have worked out the ‘what’. Your job as the leader of the business is to work out the ‘what’; you will always find people who can work out the ‘how’. This process of ideas branching off to other ideas follows the thought form of a spider diagram. You should repeat this same exercise every month as it cannot but help generate relevant ideas and hypotheses of threats. But to make the most of this, have all your staff do this exercise – and I mean everybody. The objective of this exercise is to see the problem from as many different perspectives as possible, as each provides a unique vantage point and lifetime of creative insights, almost all of which you have no hope of reaching by yourself. Perhaps the greatest creative thinking tool that I use is a specific type of spider diagram called the mind map. Mind mapping of course, is now very popular though Tony Buzan and the countless apps and programmes that are available. I use a programme called MindMaple on my Mac, which syncs with MindMaple on my iPhone and iPad. The software is excellent for making formal mind maps, but quite often I simply use pen and paper because it imparts a sense of freedom to me. So in respect to thinking creatively in your business, you can give yourself an enormous advantage over your competitors by giving yourself the benefit of understanding the market, the world, the problem, the opportunity, the relationship, the war, the offensive and the defensive – all from the perspective of the other side. You should also try to imagine the perspective from a removed, third party that is not directly involved in the situation. When you gain these two extra perspectives, on top of your own; you achieve the advantage of seeing yourself and your strengths and weaknesses from the perspective of those your are trying to appear better than; and you also gain a clearer picture of what the buyer, who isn’t invested in either your own or your competitors’ perspectives, actually sees the market as. So in thinking creativity, it is essential that we do not restrict ourselves to think in an ordinary, linear fashion. What we need is to be able to conceive of a very large fridge at the SAME time as how to reduce the size of the giraffe. The hardened picture of an ordinary fridge is so set in our mind that we instantly jump to the problem of the giraffe’s size. This image of a normal sized fridge represents the rigidity of ordinary management thinking that prevents us from being as naturally creative as a five year old. But while we are all coaxed into the ‘box’ of common thinking, I truly believe it is possible for any person who wants to, to practise how to think more creatively. This is best achieved by adopting a thinking framework to become your new thinking process and then purposely applying that thinking framework in all problems that you solve – or opportunities you will to exploit. As I have mentioned, there are a number of well known frameworks such as the Six Thinking Hats, but I would like to discuss perhaps one of the most powerful – not only in terms of the incredible creativity that it can generate for commercial gain, but also in terms of the benefits across all the others areas of your life. I believe this to have the ability to transform your business/financial situation; as well as your health, relationships and ultimately, the happiness you experience in living. This framework represents the mind of the greatest genius and archetype polymath that ever lived…Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci. The Renaissance Man. Leonardo Da Vinci is considered by most learned historians and scholars as the ultimate Universal Genius and possessed a ‘feverishly inventive imagination’. Born in Florence in 1452 he created inventions and displayed intellectual and creative genius in all endeavours of human knowledge and his insatiable curiosity drove him to an obsession to learn…everything. In 1866 Hippolyte wrote of him, “There may not be in the world an example of another genius so universal, so incapable of fulfilment, so full of yearning for the infinite, so naturally refined, so far ahead of his own century and the following centuries”. And as recently as 1967, Bortolon described him so, "Because of the multiplicity of interests that spurred him to pursue every field of knowledge ... Leonardo can be considered, quite rightly, to have been the universal genius par excellence, and with all the disquieting overtones inherent in that term. Man is as uncomfortable today, faced with a genius, as he was in the 16th century. Five centuries have passed, yet we still view Leonardo with awe." Let’s go back to that first test I gave you where you drew the Q on your forehead. Remember I said there is an enormous difference in people that make the tail of the Q point to left eye as opposed to the right eye? Well I promised you I’d direct you to the answer, so here’s how to find it. This test comes from creativethinking.net, but to make it easy, I have already compiled the answer for you. Simply look at the show notes for this episode at www.thebusinessfirm.com.au (on the podcast page) and download the PDF for episode 105. The answer will freak you out! So clearly, to adopt the very system of thinking that was used by the greatest mind ever, is to find an excellent guide to model one’s own creative development upon. I was lucky enough to come across perhaps the work of arguable the greatest scholar of Leonardo Da Vinci, Michael Gelb, in 1998 when I saw his ground-breaking book, How To Think Like Leonardo Da Vinci: Seven Steps to Genius Everyday. What Michael Gelb did was study Leonardo’s mind and thinking extensively – more so than probably any person in history ever has. He sought to understand in full the very thought process that made Leonardo such as extraordinary genius; and after years of research and peering into the mind of the Maestro, he wrote this book which changed mine and millions and millions of other people’s lives, all round the world. He was able to distil Leonardo’s thought process down into seven key principles; which when lived in concert can arm you with the same view of the world as Leonardo. It is an amazing, amazing system of thinking that is surprising easily to understand. By following those seven principles, you will find incredible creativity and with it, the power to transform your business and all other aspects of your life. Of course, Michael has rewritten many other books on the subject of creativity, in fact, 14 in total. Some of which include: Creativity on Demand: How To Ignite and Sustain The Fire of Genius; Innovate Like Edison: The Five Step System For Breakthrough Business Success; Discover Your Genius; Thinking for Change; 5 Keys to High Performance; Brain Power: Improve Your Mind As You Age; and Wine Drinking For Inspired Thinking. He is also a highly sought after keynote speaker, a presenter of corporate seminars and a coach and mentor. He consults to some of the world’s largest companies, including Microsoft, IBM, KPMG, Nike, General Electric, Ernst and Young, Unilever, Roche, H&R Block, Xerox, the United States Army and the list continues. He has won numerous prestigious awards, including Brain Of The Year (1999) an honour bestowed by the Brain Trust Charity to very few, amongst which are Stephen Hawking and Edward De Bono. Without doubt, Michael Gelb is an extraordinary genius in his own right and perhaps one of the most qualified individuals from which you would want to learn creative thinking strategy. So…what are those seven, transformative Da Vincian principles? Well, it is my very great pleasure to invite you to follow me into the lift as we ascend up to The Business Firm Presidential Lounge and there, awaiting us, is no other than the amazing, Michael Gelb.

Contact: Michael@michaelgelb.com www.michaelgelb.com Today’s question comes from Andeep who manufacturers high quality timber stains in Chennai, India. His product is more expensive than most brands and while he currently sells in India, he’s having difficulty competing with the cheaper brands in his domestic market, which is still in economic development. Andeep has just sent product into Indonesia as a first outbound test in Jakarta. He now wants to export to Australia and New Zealand and is seeking advice on what he should consider in making the leap into the Aussie market. Well Andeep, thank you for your question mate. You are in the same situation of many manufacturers on the Subcontinent and also in China who have reached a limitation to growth, both in respect to sales volumes as well as profitability. So, you are not alone in your predicament and The Business Firm has helped a number of manufacturers enter Australia, which in every case I can happily report has enabled those businesses to increase revenue, but more importantly, to dramatically improve profitability. Of course, while Australian has a smaller population than India or Indonesia, the amount of income per capita here is much, much higher. Also, when you take into account the difference in the exchange rate between the Rupee and the Australian Dollar, the real amount you will earn per sale will be a great deal higher, while still incurring the very low cost of production in India against that higher revenue. Hence, if you can manage the transport and logistics aspect of exporting to Australia (which you might be able to minimise by shipping direct from the Indian port of Chennai to the Australian port of Darwin in the Northern Territory, which is actually a relatively short distance, if you use sea cargo), then you definitely have the opportunity to create a lucrative export programme for your business. In Australia, all coatings (timber stains, house paints, direct-to-metal enamels and especially automotive two-pack paints) are very expensive. So there is likely plenty of room for you to play between your cost and the potential retail price. In fact, for pretty much everything you can think of, Australian retail prices are always significantly more expensive than any other country, including the U.S. and the U.K, even when adjusting for exchange rate and shipping. Australian simply dish out more money for stuff. This gives you the ability to make some strategic choices in respect the distribution, which quite frankly, is going to be the single most important marketing determinant of your commercial success – probably more so than promotion. The reason is that geographically, Australia is gigantic – an entire continent; and it is sparsely populated, except for the largest cities of: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Darwin and Hobart. The smaller cities such as Albury-Wodonga, Geelong, Mount Gambier, Cairns etc. are spread all over the continent and to service these areas can be expensive, but you are usually able to charge higher prices to compensate for the higher distribution costs – something that is naturally accepted by most people in these areas. Hence, how you organise distribution is crucial. You really only have two practical options: to try and sell everything yourself; or install distributors to do this for you. If you want to make any meaningful volume of sales, you really need to put on distributors and consider any sales you make direct to the pubic off your website, as a bonus – not to mention that even for your online sales you will still need to have a warehouse facility somewhere in Australia that is able to physically ship the product to your buyer, anyway. So, look for distributors in every state and territory; both in the big capital cities and also in the regional centres. Don’t offer any distributor sole distribution as your product doesn’t warrant it (i.e. you are not selling Mercedes Benz cars), unless of course the opportunity to sell in Bunnings (the largest hardware chain in Australia) presents itself only as an exclusive deal; but to be honest, even such a deal is unlikely to be an exclusive one because almost all of the products Bunnings sell are also available at their biggest competitor chains, such as Mitre 10 and Solver. So you want to ensure that you have distribution for public retail (in places such as Bunnings), as well as distribution specifically for the trade market. In Australia and New Zealand, most trade buyers buy from specialist trade supply companies, not from big, public-going chains like Bunnings. You will need to find these suppliers and begin making contact with them. The main benefit of using trade suppliers is that your product will benefit from expert sales representation, as opposed to the blank stares you get from the staff that usually works at the big, public-going chains. The other benefit of course is that the trade suppliers are usually owner-operated, so they are much, much more likely to actively push your brand to buyers, as opposed to your tins sitting silently amongst the plethora of other brands’ tins that sit alongside yours on the shelf at the impersonal, largely self-serve chain stores. However, don’t get me wrong, you need both of these so don’t for a moment think of choosing just one of these channels over the other. In respect to promotion, you should budget for some advertising to build brand awareness and try and position your brand in the minds of the market. Because you are not selling a product with broad-based demand, you should narrow you spend to only target your niche; buyers of stains, French polishers, woodwork businesses, furniture restoration businesses, builders of outdoor decks and gates, businesses that make bookshelves, cabinet makers, builders of kitchens, as well as trying to get in front of members of the public, but only at the point when they are likely to be considering timber stains, such as when they are doing DIY wood projects, or resurfacing an existing deck, or renovating a wooden gate etc. Obviously, reaching trade targets is easy because you can find them in business directories, but getting members of the public specifically at the time when they are considering purchasing stains is more difficult, this is where very targeted advertising options such as search, FaceBook, YouTube, good text and video on your own website etc. is crucially important. Finally, in respect to price, I’ve already mentioned that when selling into Australia there is usually a large amount of ‘fat’ between your cost and the retail prices that are tolerated in Australia. Now, if you want to make good money over a long period, then share that margin with your distributors. Don’t try and hog it all yourself, leave plenty for them so that they are highly incentivised to push your brand over all the other brands that already stock. Assuming your stain is good, if they can properly service their customers and make more money from your product at the same time, then they will carve out market share for you – but you have to look after them. And looking after them does not just mean in terms of price, you need to provide them with all the promotional tools they need to sell your product. Have the brochures ready for them. Have the TDS and PDS sheets ready for them as a download, in properly spelled Australian English! Also, have high quality videos on YouTube ready for your distributors so they can send their customers there for tips, technical information, application methods, FAQ and so forth. You need to help them, help you. I hope this has helped you Andeep, as well as anybody else that manufacturers products and is interested in selling into Australia and New Zealand. I can tell you that these are some of the things we have done for our own clients that have entered the Australian market and all of these are necessary in order to be successful. There is obviously more to it, but as a minimum these are the basics you need to consider in your business. I strongly suggest finding a marketing consultant that is local in Australia who has had experience in B2B or trade distribution because their local knowledge will best ensure the work they do for you is best suited to the Australian context; in respect to labelling laws, HAZCHEM compliance (this has to do with storage and transport of flammable or dangerous goods across Australia, which of course, includes paints), and in respect to creating videos with Australian voices (which is a must, by the way), and in respect to the most appropriate way to approach the local suppliers and how best to represent your brand to them, and also the best way to structure the pricing offer so as to engage them properly to actively sell your brand…plus lots of other important considerations that are essential if you are going to be successful in the Australian market. So, I wish you all the best Andeep. Go forth mate, and conquer Australia and New Zealand! Listen to Episode 105 to hear all of Steven’s advice to this question.

The first in our series on photo assignments deals with the concept of variation in photography. Objective: it expand your capacity for creative thinking. Edward De Bono suggested that often we develop habits based on our minds ability to store equations to solve problems. If we want to do X – our brain selects a way we know how to do it. So how do we change this and force new “equations”? This is what we will discover in this assignment. Edward De Bono :: Lateral Thinking http://amzn.to/2fk1Dp6

Happy to play the role of provocateur and prankster, Stefan Sagmeister has famously pushed the boundaries of design. Stefan’s legend stems from the fact his work is so closely linked to his personal searchings and strivings. His impressive client roster includes names like The Rolling Stones, Target, Talking Heads, HBO, Time Warner and the Guggenheim, and he’s won two Grammy awards, an AIGA Medal and practically every important international design award. Stefan’s exhibitions have been mounted in museums around the world, including his latest project: The Happy Show (which is both an exhibit and a film). The exhibit has already attracted way over a quarter of a million visitors worldwide and became the most visited graphic design show in history. Of course we get into this at the top of the show, and we also dive into: Work/Life balance … In fact, he takes a sabbatical every 7 years. We explore the idea of being different, which is a thing that I think a lot of creatives struggle with. We also talk about ways to develop new ideas borrowed from Edward De Bono and we do a fun little exercise that you can use too. Enjoy!
