Tired of second-guessing or relying on gut calls?
This full-day workshop equips participants at all levels with the tools and mindset to analyse information, challenge assumptions, and make sound, ethical decisions.
You’re deep in a project. Everyone has a different take, the data’s unclear, and decisions need to be made - fast. Do you trust your gut, push forward, or pause and dig deeper?
This immersive training day is for professionals who want to stop second-guessing and start thinking clearly and confidently. It is your circuit breaker for groupthink, information overload, and decision fatigue.
Critical thinking is a non-negotiable skill for professional success.
Through practical frameworks and real-world examples, this session builds clarity, confidence, and capability in navigating ambiguity and solving problems effectively.
You’ll explore how your brain takes shortcuts (and when it’s useful or dangerous), unpack real workplace scenarios, and walk away with models you’ll actually use the next time you’re under pressure.
“As always, I walked away feeling armed with some new ‘superpowers’ I can put into practice immediately – Which I have done! I really do believe that the A.R.T Your Life space/venue makes a world of difference. I can’t wait for your next workshops.” - Jas, NT Government
What’s in it for me?
• Develop the skills to think clearly, critically, and independently in any situation
• Learn how to identify biases, test assumptions, and evaluate evidence
• Apply structured models like I.G.R.O.W, SWOT, and Six Thinking Hats to real workplace problems
• Strengthen your ability to make ethical, informed, and confident decisions under pressure
This is for you if...
• You often make fast decisions, and wish you’d paused for a better one
• You manage projects, people, or policies with competing demands
• You’ve been told to “think strategically” but want the tools to do it well
• You feel stuck between instinct, input, and information overload
• You want to feel more confident leading, questioning, and choosing under pressure
It's time to make confident, ethical, clear-headed decisions...starting with this one.
We look forward to welcoming you.
