A Training Course in Critical Thinking
Why Asking The Right Questions Matters
In a world overflowing with information, the ability to ask the right questions is more powerful than simply knowing the answers. This course is designed to help you sharpen your critical thinking skills, uncover hidden assumptions, and engage in meaningful dialogue—whether you’re involved in Decision-Making Conversations, Strategic Dialogues, Innovation Talks, Critical Business Discussions or Everyday Conversations.
What You’ll Learn
- The Anatomy of an Argument
Understand how issues, conclusions, reasons, and assumptions form the backbone of persuasive communication. - Descriptive vs. Prescriptive Issues
Learn to distinguish between what is and what ought to be—and why that matters. - Spotting Value Assumptions
Explore how conflicting values (e.g., freedom vs. security, loyalty vs. honesty) shape arguments and influence outcomes. - Common Reasoning Errors
Identify and correct flawed logic, ambiguous phrasing, and misleading conclusions. - The Pyramid of Disagreement
Discover how to elevate your debates from name-calling to refuting the central point.
Hands-On Practice
This course isn’t just theory—it’s a workout for your brain. Through interactive exercises and real-world scenarios, you’ll build the intellectual muscle needed to:
- Deconstruct arguments
- Rewrite them clearly and concisely
- Evaluate their strength based on reasoning and values
From Sponging to Gold Panning
We’ll challenge the passive “sponging” approach to learning and embrace the active “panning for gold” mindset. You’ll learn how to sift through noise and extract insights that matter.
