In creative writing, glasses and hats are two deep metaphors for contemplating transformation.” Change is lived and understood via strategic lenses/systemic (the big picture), cultural/political (the resistance to dominant norms and values), and sympathetic (the impact on human experience).
The Six Thinking Hats provide a spectrum of viewpoints and approaches to contemplating transformation. The six colors each have different functions. White is for facts, red is for emotions, black is for dangers, yellow is for opportunity, green is for creativity, and blue is for managerial strategy. This ability to wear both glasses and hats allows for comprehensive knowledge and practice of transformation, which requires careful attention to the human dimension and a rigorous evaluation of facts, dangers, and possibilities.
