In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, critical thinking has become essential for professionals across all fields. Making sound decisions, solving problems effectively, and navigating complex challenges are crucial for driving success and staying competitive.
Are You Reason-Able?
To be reasonable, you must be able to reason. Our ability to reason is what makes humans humane. And when we abdicate our frontal lobe cortex’s responsibility to interact as adults with others, we devolve into our reptilian brains. And nothing good happens in the Jurassic Park parts of our perceptions.
The Deception of Perception
Censoring divergent viewpoints is never an option in civilizations because it's uncivilized. It's juvenile, reptilian-brained, and sanctimonious.
