    Developing Your Critical Thinking Skills

     

    The words “critical thinking” frequently appear in job descriptions as well as in requests from leaders at all levels. We want our candidates to demonstrate critical thinking  capabilities and leaders want this skill in the workforce. It is a desirable characteristic that demands the attention of HR professionals. 

    But what is critical thinking? 

    Thinking critically is the ability to analyze a concept objectively, considering the facts  and differing perspectives to reach a sound, logical conclusion. The reason critical  thinking is a skill—and not just an automatic thought process—is because most people  naturally think “uncritically,” making decisions based on personal biases, self-interest, or  irrational emotions. Everyone is vulnerable to this type of simplistic thinking—it’s human  nature. 

    During this webinar, we will explore the nature of our uncritical thinking and explore  some of the strategies we can utilize to help ourselves become better critical thinkers.
