About Lateral Thinking

Why do some people always seem to be having new ideas while others of equal intelligence never do?
— Edward de Bono, New Think

According to Edward de Bono, Lateral thinking is the process of thinking out of the box when we have a problem that normal/vertical thinking is not the solution! Sometimes with vertical thinking, we believe the solutions is impossible to achieve!
And how can we think out of the box? This mini-workshop will help to raise your awareness on this by doing creative exercises/games that unblock the understanding of Lateral Thinking.
