Solving Problems Through Critical Thinking

(Approximately 75 to 90 minutes)

Overview

In this webinar you will learn how to make effective decisions and solve problems using critical thinking and simple, practical tools.  You make decisions and solve problems everyday.  Learn how to apply critical thinking techniques to these activities. 

Every organization must be nimble when solving new and recurring challenges; and everyone within the organization must be able to use critical thinking and creative problem solving to take action on these challenges.
