Thinking
with the Right Intention ™
|
"I have been a great supporter of the entire Effective Intelligence™ model and opportunities it has afforded myself and my teams through the years. After taking the 3 day Foundations Program, I now feel I am solidly grounded in both the fundamentals of the thinking-intentions™, but more importantly, I feel I now have the skills and ability to enhance my personal use of the model in my own Effective Intelligence™ as well as coaching others . "

Effective
Intelligence™ is a practical and proven system designed
to increase organizational brainpower and results. It is applied
in organizations at three levels of depth and precision: the 3 Driving
Forces of Thinking, the 6 associated Mind Frames, and the 21 Core
Thinking Tools
(Thunks™).
Thunks™ is the name coined by Jerry Rhodes to describe the core conceptual activities, Thinking-Intentions™ that underlie and drive our thoughts. Thinking-Intentions™, or Thunks™ for short, describe both how we think, and the goal or result we are aiming at with our thinking. In effect, Thunks™ are like the letters of the alpha bet for thinking, they are the building blocks of thought.
What is your Winning Thinking Strategy?
Through an analysis of personal thinking preferences using Thunks™, leaders and managers can discover, with remarkable precision, their preferred patterns of perception, uncovering valuable insights that were previously below their level of awareness.

" Effective thinking matters most when we are stretched, under pressure and the consequences of our decisions are significant. The challenge is to recognize just how much the quality of our thinking impacts the results we get . "
