소개
The Six Thinking Hats session mind map template, based on Edward de Bono's method, structures meetings into 61 nodes across Blue, White, Red, Black, Yellow, Green, and Blue Hat phases. It guides facilitators through 'Initialization of meeting' with steps like 'Why we are here' and 'Definition problem', then sequences hat-specific discussions (e.g., 'White Hat' for facts, 'Green Hat' for creativity), and closes with 'Ending of meeting' including 'Summaries', 'Conclusion', and 'Next steps'. This Six Thinking Hats template is ideal for teams seeking a structured, parallel-thinking framework to reduce conflict and improve decision-making. The Six Thinking Hats cheat sheet provides reusable building blocks for any session.

자주 묻는 질문
The template includes 61 nodes organized into Blue Hat Start (meeting initialization), White Hat (facts), Red Hat (emotions), Black Hat (caution), Yellow Hat (optimism), Green Hat (creativity), Blue Hat End (conclusion), and reusable sequence building blocks.
Open the .xmind file, start with Blue Hat Start to define the problem and goals, then follow the sequence building blocks to guide discussion through each hat color, and finish with Blue Hat End to summarize and plan next steps.
Yes, the template is fully editable. You can add or remove nodes, customize the 'Topic' nodes under each hat, and adjust the sequence to fit your session's needs.
Use the 'Sequence building blocks' to pre-plan the hat order. Start with Blue Hat for focus, then alternate hats as needed, ensuring each participant thinks in the same mode simultaneously. End with Blue Hat to harvest conclusions.
Absolutely. The template works for solo thinking by guiding you through each hat's perspective, helping you explore facts, emotions, risks, benefits, and creative ideas systematically.
