Feedback on method usage from leader after Session 1:
How to measure yourself and your group work using Six Thinking Hats?
- Idea Generation
Quality?
Should be random
New?
Definitely should be some new
Speed?
Should be fast

There should be no arguing!
Clarifications are required though!
- Did you apply the correct mental context when Hats were switched?
Simple to check, and simple to measure
- Did you experience emotional state changes?
From energetic to tired
Cycles from beginning of hat to end of hat
From passionate to dispassionate
From amused to engaged to disengaged
Feedback on method from participants after Session 1:
Keep / Change (%2b / delta)
- Keep
More structured way for brainstorming
Focussing on different aspects of problem worked well
Forced myself to be "glass half empty", to take opposite side to usual
Common discussion in a hat
Easy to deal with "difficult" personalities
Hats AND Timings kept us moving forward
Everyone got involved
- Change
More aggressive timekeeping required
No arguiing
No negotiation
Blue hat (facillitator) needs to be more active if off-topic discussions start
A better way to handle ideas under wrong hat that suddenly occur
Forgiveness?
Change the blue hat
Tended to discuss ideas as they came up
Conversations became as important as idea generation
Hard to stay in a particular hat mode
Conflict between learning and using Six Thinking Hats and dealing with the "cynicism" topic
Sometimes better to think of some concepts, and then to categorise them
