Communication across any medium is essentially an exchange of information or ideas and any exchange needs to be backed by clear logic and reason. And therefore, with this session, you will develop critical thinking abilities to formulate and structure your thoughts, ideas, and arguments in a more refined fashion.

Francis Bacon once said, “Read not to contradict and confute, nor to believe and take for granted, nor to find talk and discourse, but to weigh and consider”. This statement is very much relevant for critical thinking. Every great mind in history was a critical thinker. They had the vision to look at problems from many different perspectives and then come up with the best possible solution. 

Similarly, at work too, you must train your mind to think critically. This will not only help you make calculated decisions but also help you avoid impulsive ones.

So what exactly is Critical Thinking and how can we implement this skill?

Critical thinking means evaluating a problem from all sides before reaching a decision.

This requires reading and understanding the experts' view both in support of and against the topic.  

The chief aspect of critical thinking is to listen, read and view each and everything precisely.

Critical thinking is vital for making informed and right decisions.

The entire critical thinking process involves four main stages: Research, Analyse, Build Personal Opinion and Express your View.

Developing a reading habit, surfing the web or talking to some intelligent people will help gain information.

Hope this helps!
