+The '''Six Thinking Hats®''' is a role-playing model presented by Edward de Bono in 1986.  It serves as a team-based problem solving and [[brainstorming]] technique that can be used to explore problems and solutions and uncover ideas and options that might otherwise be overlooked by a homogeneously thinking group.
 The basic premise hinges upon the idea that most people think and reason in a specific way based on their personality type.  This means that a more emotional person may generate ideas differently than a more analytical person, and vice-versa. Similarly a pessimist will approach a situation very differently than an optimist.

 *Blue Hat: This is the controller hat. In a meeting, he’s the person presiding. He controls the process. He calls on the group to change hats. This is the conductor.
