Trench Leadership: A Podcast From the Front
E86 - How To Think Critically featuring Dr. Steve Pearlman
I’d like to begin this episode by acknowledging the land that I am learning and living on is the traditional unceded, un-surrendered territory of the Algonquin Anishnaabeg People.
Critical thinking is a skill that comes easier to some people more than others. The good news is that critical thinking skills can be taught. And this is great news because a robust critical thinking capacity is essential for leaders.
And so, in this episode, you’ll hear from Dr. Steve Pearlman, Founder of The Critical Thinking Institute, author, ad fellow podcast host, will offer his definition of critical thinking while also providing advice and practical tips to help all of us be the best critical thinkers we can be.
