Generative thinking - the ability to transform the raw data of human experience into productive information - allows us to process any experience in life into principles, programmes and objectives. That means we are never without recourse in resolving problems or achieving goals.

Human Generativity: Generative Thinking Skills is an introduction to these empowering generative thinking skills.

The book is organised into 6 parts to give readers a thorough grounding in how to prepare for, explore, understand, act and recycle generative thinking skills. Key topics include:
  • How to prepare by identifying performance, benefits and productivity goals
  • How to explore the experience by analysing feedback, outputs, processes, inputs and systems
  • How to understand and synthesise goals by expanding and narrowing systems and operations
  • How to act by defining objectives, and developing, formulating and evaluating programmes
  • How to recycle by feedbacking information for more extensive exploring, more accurate understanding and more productive acting.
The authors believe the personal implications are profound for the generative thinker - living life as testable principles to be shaped by daily experience. With this book, you will be empowered will the skills necessary to make any journey a generative thinking journey.

Human Generativity: Generative Thinking Skills is the third volume in a series of three. In volume one, the authors explore the scientific legacy of generative thinking. In volume two, they introduce the reader to the experimental sciences.
