Summary of Think Again
We often see intelligence as an ability to think and learn, but we forget the most important part of intelligence: the ability to rethink and unlearn. We must learn how to examine information we’ve been given and accepted as fact, and to re-think our former convictions in order to have the most accurate information and convictions we can. We have to unlearn false information and use our ability to do so to have a more solid foundation.
When we surround ourselves with people who agree with us and think the same as us, we do ourselves a disservice and prevent ourselves from growing and learning. We become too much like preachers who have to defend their beliefs, prosecutors who have to prove we are correct, or politicians who campaign for what they want. What we need to do is learn to think like scientists.
Thinking like a scientist involves us doing individual rethinking, interpersonal rethinking, and collective rethinking. When we can learn to challenge our own beliefs, challenge our identity, and bring that kind of environment into our workplaces, we can create a situation where learning is paramount, and excellence is achieved.
Think Again will show you how to engage in re-thinking, not just the importance of it. It will give evidence that re-thinking works, and anecdotes of people and organizations who have used re-thinking to change their lives and businesses.
Here is a Preview of What You Will Get:
⁃ A Full Book Summary
⁃ An Analysis
⁃ Fun quizzes
⁃ Quiz Answers
⁃ Etc.
