Divergent vs. convergent thinking

Divergent vs. convergent thinking

Do you think like an artist or a scientist? Each of us approaches problems differently – some seek new paths, while others stick to proven solutions. We each have a hidden talent that influences how we think and create.

This module focuses on comparing two ways of thinking – creative and logical. It will help you understand whether you tend to experiment more or look for clear and tested solutions.

Better self-awareness – You will find out if you think more analytically or creatively.
Increased adaptability – You will learn to combine both approaches depending on the situation.
Problem-solving development – You will understand how to generate and select solutions more effectively.
Support for creativity – You will improve your ability to seek new ideas.
Balanced thinking – You will adopt techniques for connecting divergent and convergent thinking.
