De Bono's Methodology “Six Hats of Thinking” and Mulej's Methodology of Creative Cooperation “USOMID”

Abstract

In his search for ways to support the real transition and thus to realize the institutional one, the first author came across the methodology called »Six thinking hats«. This contribution briefs how coauthors have linked it with the first author's own methodology that is called USOMID, which is at least equally old, and supports creative thinking, too. Synergy of both methodologies is feasible. The first trials demonstrated that it can be very useful. USOMID supports well the blue and white heads, first of all, while receiving support from the red, black, green, and yellow hats in the phases of creative work and preparation of decisions; in the phase of implementing them USOMID seems to complete up the t6 thinking hats method
