Important points to note
​​The hats can be used on your own or in a group.
​
In group discussions, it is essential that everyone uses the same hat (mode of thinking) at the same time. This is to avoid personal preferences and conflicts between modes of thinking.
The black hat is essential. It is a necessary part of thinking but often overused.
Training in the use of the hats includes how to structure the hats into sequences to address different situations.
