3.2: Acquire truthful information

Purpose

Your thinking will do little good if the data and information you have is incomplete, inaccurate, misunderstood, or completely false.  There is a positive correlation between thinkers who develop more and better ideas/solutions with those that have obtained relevant and accurate background knowledge.

 

Facilitator Questions

o  What are the key questions that I need to ask to understand the current situation/problem?

o  How might others be trying to shape my understanding of this situation?

o  What is the source of the information? Does this source have any biases?

o  How did this situation/problem come about?

o  How do I separate fact from opinion?
