Illuminateintegrativeunderstanding

Can you think, unconventionally, learn generatively; see things differently, engage intellectually, tolerate ambiguity, handle complexity, open-mindedly?

Integrative thinking is -

looking at -

an issue from -

multiple perspectives.

holding two opposite hypotheses, 

side by side,

integrating them into-

a new way, 

synergistically.



Rather than seeking to-

simplify a problem,

as much as possible;

are you able to -

seek out -

alternative views,

contradictory data,

paradoxical understanding;

consider the problem, 

 as a whole,

approach problem,

holistically?

Integrative thinkers are-

relentless learners,

interdisciplinary experts,

paradoxical insighteers,

seek to develop-

repertoire of skills,

engage tensions between -

opposites to-

transcend duality,

discover novel solutions,

creatively.

Can you think;

unconventionally,

learn generatively;

see things differently,

engage intellectually,

tolerate ambiguity,

handle complexity,

open-mindedly?

Integrative thinkers face-

tensions of -

opposing viewpoints,

instead of -

choosing one at-

the expense of -

the other,

they weigh in -

variables,

make tradeoffs,

wisely;

build -

synthetic models,

constructively;

generating resolution,

effortlessly.
