Edward de Bono Obituary

I frequently reference Joel Barker’s Implications Wheel as a tool that has very successfully identified “unintended consequences.”  However, I’ve also made great use of de Bono’s Six Thinking Hats to evaluate complete information including the accuracy, the benefits, and risks of an issue.

Future

The past cannot be changed. The future is yet in your power.

Learning

Learn as though you would never be able to master it; hold it as though you would be in fear of losing it.

— Confucious

Thinking

If you keep on thinking what you’ve always thought, you’ll keep on getting what you’ve always got.
