Evolve
The presenting team evolves their idea equipped with the white, black, yellow,
and green hat feedback.
Tips
This exercise requires strong facilitation skills. Make sure people Don’t
voice opinions when it’s time for the white hat to ask clarifying questions.
Make sure that regardless of whether people hate or love an idea,
everybody puts on all hats, white, black, yellow, and green.
Use the black hat before the yellow hat to neutralize extremely negative
people. Once they voiced their feedback, they might even think positively.
De Bono’s Thinking Hats also works well in small groups or individually to
help people come up with all the reasons why an idea might fail or succeed.
