Critical Thinking Foundations
We don't often think about our own thinking, but if we want to improve ourselves and truly think well, it's important to understand the rudiments of thought, the most basic structures out of which all thinking is made. A key factor in effective leadership is a high degree of metacognition — the process of thinking about one's thinking. When inbound marketers and salespeople develop more efficient metacognitive strategies, including awareness of the factors and conditions that influence their thinking, they are more positive, more effective, and able to achieve greater success.
