Six Thinking Hats

Edward de Bono's Six Thinking Hats method from 1985, packaged as a Claude prompt framework. You work through six perspectives systematically: White Hat for facts and data, Red Hat for gut feelings without justification, Black Hat for risks and what could go wrong, Yellow Hat for benefits, Green Hat for creative alternatives, and Blue Hat to manage the process itself. Useful when you're stuck in analysis paralysis, need to evaluate a product launch from multiple angles, or want to avoid the usual debate where everyone defends their position. The structured approach means everyone examines the same perspective at once instead of arguing past each other. Works well for strategic planning or breaking through decision gridlock.
