be here and speak on this topic unscripted. But the theme that I'm going to take is scripting the unscripted. If you look at the life of any individual, where we are born is not our choice.

Problem-Solving Techniques - Cognitive fixation hinders problem-solving, adaptability, and creativity skills by relying on habitual patterns and preconvinced notions [4][5] - Zooming in and zooming out helps adjust focus by looking at problems in their finest components or at the systems and patterns outside of the problem [6][7] - Dr Edward de Bono's six thinking hats method divides logic, emotion, and creativity to help break rigid thinking and spark innovation [8][9] - Empathy mapping is a visual tool that helps understand someone's emotions, thoughts, and behaviors to gain a deeper insight into their perspective [17] Application of Techniques - Zooming in involves detail-oriented thinking, focusing on small components perpetuating problems [6] - Zooming out involves big-picture thinking, looking at systems and patterns outside the problem [7] - The six thinking hats method structures thinking by considering data (white hat), emotions (red hat), caution (black hat), optimism (yellow hat), new ideas (green hat), and managed thinking (blue hat) [9][10][11][12] - Empathy mapping involves understanding what a person says, thinks, feels, and does to gain deeper insight [19] Benefits of Perspective Shift - Shifting between zooming in and zooming out perspectives solves problems more effectively and uncovers missed insights [8] - The six thinking hats method helps structure thinking and approach problems from multiple angles [24] - Empathy mapping leads to more thoughtful and effective solutions by understanding others' perspectives [19] - Mastering the art of toggling perspectives turns obstacles into advantages [26]
