Speaker Rod Willis:
Synopsis
Thinking about our thinking is something we all can do, yet some find it easier than others to do so. This interactive session will demonstrate a systematic way to explore our natural way of thinking, as it is today. We will use a method to identify potential blind spots in each of us in a quantifiable manner. Next, we will show how you can identify potential blind spots of a group or team in the time it takes to colour in a few symbols. Sounds too good to be true, come along and see for yourself. In the remaining time, we will explore what you can do to embrace those important blind spots and enhance the agility of your thinking.
A few more thoughts are shared here https://getagilemindsets.com/ but the real HOW TO will be shared at the event. If you enjoyed the sessions we ran for the BCS in 2016 (London) and 2017 (Reading), you will really like this one.
