Thinklets - Tools for the mind.

So what are thinklets? In its purest sense a Thinklet can be as simple as “asking the perfect question.” or providing a small burst of thinking stimuli (expert “facilitation” questions) embedded in traditional thinking techniques, templates and worksheets.

These thinklets help the thinker alter routine thinking patterns and activate not commonly used patterns leading to new associations, relationships and ultimately new innovative ways of thinking.

There are five kinds of thinklets.
• Trigger Questions: Ask the right question helps the mind find the right answer.
• Thinking Techniques: Instead of routine thinking, use fresh thinking patterns
• Templates: Guided thinking with forms, worksheets and models.
• Tutors: Clarity and just-in-time understanding is essential for effective thinking.

Thinking Points - Emulating the human consultant.

Thinking points are at the heart of the emulation grid. They represent the organizing points where the right data and the right thinklet come together at the moment of thinking to optimize the outcome.

Thinking Points are where human facilitators are emulated.
It is at these points where thinklets are applied just as if the human facilitator was giving intellectual guidance. The purpose of a thinking point is to function as if the human consultant, expert or professor were working directly with you and providing intellectual guidance to help you find your own best idea or solution.

Innovation Applications – Putting Theory into Practice (TOC)

“The synergy between theory, methods, and tools lies at the heart of any field of human endeavor that truly builds knowledge.” - Peter Senge

Facilitated Thinking Environment – Applications.Putting the theory of Facilitation Technology into practice creates innovative new applications called Facilitated Thinking Environments (FTEs).

FTE applications put in place a comprehensive environment that surrounds knowledge-workers with the mental frameworks that delivers within a precise thought process the cognitive tools needed to boost Knowledge-worker productivity of thought.

FTEs can help make the average worker good, the good become excellent, and the excellent can attain exceptional levels of innovative thinking.
