ACTIVITY 1 Accelerating Knowledge Sharing
Each Catalytic Thinking Lab is supported by a WindTunneling project. WindTunneling is a systemic methodology to accelerate learning and knowledge sharing. Share what you learned from the lab transparently and anonymously. Compare your thinking and respond to the ideas of others. Everyone gets to see every idea; no one knows who shared which idea.
Go to WindTunneling. Use Project Code 23ACA to record your insights.
ACTIVITY 2 Self-Reflection

In what ways do you think you could improve your thinking based on what you learned in this lab? What did you notice about your current strategies and techniques in relationship to the characteristics spectrum of poorly and well-reasoned ideas? How does your organization do overall in relationship to poorly and well-reasoned ideas?
