Critical Thinking, Strategic Thinking, and Problem Solving: Making Smarter Decisions in an AI-Driven World

In an age of algorithms, critical thinking is your competitive edge. This workshop equips teams to question assumptions, analyze problems, and use AI wisely—keeping human judgment at the heart of every decision.

The pace of change demands more than fast answers—it requires clear thinking.
In this workshop, participants learn to strengthen their analytical, strategic, and creative problem-solving skills while navigating a world increasingly influenced by artificial intelligence and data-driven tools.

Dr. Eric Zackrison combines proven frameworks from his top-rated LinkedIn Learning course with new insights from his AI + Critical Thinking curriculum to help teams sharpen focus, evaluate information effectively, and make sound, ethical decisions in complex environments.

Through discussion, guided exercises, and real-world cases, participants explore how to identify biases, evaluate evidence, and leverage AI tools responsibly—ensuring technology enhances rather than replaces human insight.
