- Critical thinking is required to validate information and ideas based on verifiable evidence and sound logic - it involves a well-organized thought process that is focused on solving problems, analyzing, and researching.
- Lack of critical thinking has led to the rise of recent phenomena like runaway fake news stories or hacking of government and corporate computers, and costs companies dearly in lawsuits, fines, penalties, and failed projects.
- Critical thinkers are willing to challenge assumptions, stay open to new possibilities and approaches, and are aware of the limitations and scope of analysis while remaining reflective and transparent.
