Expand Your Thinking

For a long time, we have emphasized the characteristics of so-called “left brain thinking” as keys to success. We’ve pushed logical and literal think­ing in our universities, in business management, and yes, in consulting. Many clients engage consultants specifically to concentrate on analysis or mechani­cal thought processes to solve opera­tional problems. There’s nothing wrong with this kind of thinking, this kind of orientation, this kind of consulting. However, more is possible, and that ex­pansion of thinking will enrich and em­power.
