The Six Thinking Hats by Edward de Bono Workshop – Reflection /Gabriela N./

I think that the 6 hats workshop was particularly useful and I am definitely going to use this framework one day while working in a group to design a solution to any given issue. During the workshop we did in class, I was a part of the team which had to wear a hat corresponding to feelings. This meant that we had to describe the issue based on empathizing with the prospective user. We tried to understand what kind of emotions were the drivers behind his daily routine and inability to take action and meditate. I found this exercise very useful and thought-provoking because it made me realize how important it is to be able to empathize with users to better understand their needs and motivations.
