Definition:
According to Oxford English Creativity means to
use/involve one’s own thought or imagination to
create something new as work of art, an
invention.
Creativity doesn’t create something out of
nothing but rather re-combines ideas that already
exists.

Meaning
When we combine the above definition we can say that creativity
involves the generation of new ideas or the re-combination of known
elements into something new by providing valuable solutions to a
problem.
Creativity is not the product but the process.
Creativity involves both conscious and sub conscious thinking.
Creativity thinking can be both systematic and unsystematic.
It brings change in many situations.

White Hat
With this thinking hat you focus on the data available, look at the information
you have and see what you can learn from it. Look for the gaps in ur
knowledge and either try to fill them and take an account of them. This is
where you analyse past trends and try to hypothesize from historical data.

Red Hat Wearing the red hat, you look at the problem using intuitions, gut reaction
and emotion. And you also try to understand the responses of the people who
do not fully know your reasoning.

Black Hat Using black hat thinking, look at all the bad points of the decision. You look at
it cautiously and defensively. You try to see why it might not work. This is
important because it highlights the weak points in a plan. It allows you to
eliminate them, alter them and counter them.

Yellow Hat
The yellow hat helps you to think positively it is the optimistic view point that
helps you to see all the benefits of the decision and value in it. It helps you to
keep going when everything looks gloomy and difficult.

Blue Hat Blue hat stands for process control. This is the hat worn by people in a
chairing meeting. When running into difficulties because ideas are running
dry, they may be directed by green hat thinking and they may even consult a
black hat.

The directors of a property company are looking at whether they should construct a new office building. The economy is doing well and the amount of vacant office space is reducing sharply. As a part of their decision, they decide to use six thinking hats technique during a meeting.
Looking at the problem, with white hat they analyse the data which they have, they examine the trend in vacant office space which shows a sharp reduction. They anticipate by the time the office work would be completed there will be severe shortage of office space.
With the red hat thinking some of the directors think that the proposed building looks quite ugly while it would be highly cost effective. They worry that people would not like to work in it.
When they think with the black hat they worry that government projections may be wrong. There could be a downfall in the economy. If the building is not attractive then the companies will choose to work in another better looking building at the same rent.
![Page 22: M.Ed Advanced Psychology's Topic - Technique of Creativity'Six Thinking Hats ppt](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032714/55aa956c1a28ab0b4b8b4747/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
With the yellow hat, however if the economy holds up and
their projections are correct the company stands to make
a great deal of money and if they are lucky maybe they
could sell their building before the next downturn or give
it on lease for higher rent.
With the green hat thinking, they consider whether they
should change the design to make the building more
pleasant. Perhaps they could build prestigious office that
people would want to rent in any economic climate.
The blue hat has been used by the meeting chair to move
among the different thinking styles. He or she may have
needed to keep other members of the theme from
switching styles or from criticizing other people points.

Disadvantages
At least you need time to show your group
member how to do it and explain to them, then
need some practice.
For a long term it is good but if you want to solve
a problem for your group meeting in short term
then is not really good.
