Ask your colleagues about what a project is missing, or propose a set of hypothetical scenarios, and ask what they would do if a project undergoes such circumstances. Open-ended questions are effective in drawing out a variety of answers. After a brainstorming session, we can establish parameters for evaluating different options. They could be potential for further development or the degree of feasibility exhibited.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Divergent thinking is an ideation process that aims to ask as many questions about project needs as possible, and to generate a wide range of solutions as a response.<\/p>\n
Convergent thinking is an ideation process in which one uses logical reasoning to select ways forward from pools of options.<\/p>\n
Both divergent and convergent thinking are two sides of the same coin. They complement each other by providing creative ways to understand problems and solutions as well as a logical framework to pick definite answers.<\/p>\n
Divergent thinking seeks to kickstart a brainstorming process. It leads us to pursue the questions of \u201cwhat do we need?\u201d and \u201chow about\u2026?\u201d that leads to all kinds of possibilities. The aim of this thinking is for people to bounce ideas off each other in a freestyle manner. Convergent thinking, on the other hand, provides a meaningful conclusion by focusing on what could be done. This thinking narrows the extensive list of options down to a few suitable solutions.<\/p>\n
Both paradigms of thinking are equally crucial to policymakers, as creativity can help us see beyond the periphery of our vision, whereas logical steps take us towards the \u201cright\u201d path to our objectives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":30,"featured_media":7448,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"topic":[],"class_list":["post-7581","vocab","type-vocab","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thailandpolicylab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vocab\/7581","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thailandpolicylab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vocab"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thailandpolicylab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/vocab"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thailandpolicylab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/30"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thailandpolicylab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7448"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thailandpolicylab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7581"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thailandpolicylab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7581"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thailandpolicylab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7581"},{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thailandpolicylab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=7581"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
