Six Thinking Hats Certification

Six Thinking Hats is a fast-paced, intense and interactive course. The measurable results include shorter meetings, thorough decisions, better communication and easier problem resolution. By mentally wearing and switching symbolic "hats," individuals or teams separate thinking into six categories for analyzing matters objectively and comprehensively.

It's amazing to see the results that can be accomplished by a person or a team who knows how to separate emotion from facts, the positive from the negative and critical thinking from creative thinking.

In order to teach Six Thinking Hats, you are required to be certified.

Certifying your internal corporate trainer is the most cost-effective way to ensure Six Thinking Hats is implemented throughout your organization.

Certification training is led by highly qualified Master Trainers who have demonstrated a very high level of competence in developing others in the de Bono methods across various industries/ companies/ professions. They have developed the capability to train instructors to teach the tools to others.

How to Book Your Six Thinking Hats Certification


"Because the process is so easy to implement in virtually any situation, I am using Six Thinking Hats daily—in both my professional and my personal life. I like this simple, yet powerful, framework for discussion because it provides such a fluid, yet structured, method for getting the best thinking from all members of the group.

Seminar participants are amazed to find they have been limiting their thinking to the use of only two or three types of thinking—unknowingly. They are pleased to discover how to expand their thinking to get more ideas and better ideas from every discussion. Those organizations that are embracing Total Quality Management are especially receptive to the value of Six Thinking Hats."

- Barbara Stennes, Lifetime Certified Master Trainer and Resources Unlimited President
