Edward de Bono designed the Six Thinking Hats as a tool to assist in the decision making process. He believes that when the thinker has to deal with a wide range of information and perspectives at once the thinker loses focus and thinking becomes muddled.
To help separate information and perspectives de Bono created a tool called the Six Thinking Hats with each hat being a different colour. The Aim? By separating and focusing upon parts of the problem the thinker will be able to make clear choices.
• White Hat – The Facts, seeking information
• Blue Hat – Metacognition, for planning, monitory and thinking about thinking
• Yellow Hat – Positives, looking for the advantages
• Black Hat – Negatives, looking for the disadvantages
• Green Hat - Creativity, generating alternative ideas or solutions
• Red Hat – Feelings, identifying and expressing feelings
