About
Independent thinking is a valuable skill in the workplace. In the modern world, there is a tendency for people to rely on others for answers – to turn to the web for a 30-second answer or to turn to the most recent business process or procedure to guide their actions.
But what happens when it’s a new organisation and there are no processes or procedures? What happens when the web provides nothing appropriate? And what happens when there is no one to turn to for guidance; when you are the person people want to turn to? That’s when being confident in your independent thinking skills is invaluable.
It is a well-known fact that when businesses fail to grow and develop, they whither and die. Innovation, new ideas, fresh thinking… these are the ingredients of successful organisations across the whole world.
