DATT (Direct Attention Thinking Tools) PDF Print E-mail

Build the Innovative Edge with Breakthrough Thinking

Overview

Turn employees at all levels into dynamic and creative problems solvers

In business today, we need tools that help us to solve problems and make decisions - quickly. Such decisions can only be made with accurate perceptions - yet the vast majority of thinking errors occur in perceptions, which often vary across a team or organisation.

Why are thinking skills important?

Our fast paced, modern lives are full of action. But action can easily be confused with accomplishment resulting in employees jumping into action before thinking about what needs to be done. Action, if properly directed, is good, but if not directed can result in costly errors.

Based on a fundamental understanding of how the brain handles information, DATT® is a ten tool thinking skills program designed to help people think creatively, make decisions and solve problems faster. The aim is increased productivity and improved decision making in your organisation. By using DATT®, anyone can become more innovative, take on new responsibilities and achieve real results.
