The Science and Art of Thinking
All great scientific, psychological, or philosophical literature that talks about thinking in any significant way combines multiple aspects of the thinking and creating process. This session will explore the physiological, intellectual, and being intersections that create higher levels of vigorous, sustained thinking. The session will combine theorists from physiology, neurology, humanism, quantum thinking, and psychology. The goal is not to provide an overview of the literature around thinking, but instead to provide attendees with the practices and platform to elevate their thinking. In addition, throughout the session, attendees will learn how to apply these methodologies with clients within a coaching and core coaching competencies context. Session objectives:
1. To understand the methodologies that underlie powerful thinking.
2. To identify the methodologies coaches want to use in a coaching context.
3. To be acquainted with the way in which these methodologies are used within a coaching context.
