Value Sensitivity

 

Edward de Bono’s Message 

I am becoming more and more aware of the huge importance of ‘value sensitivity’. We are good at detecting danger and at detecting why something will not work. We are poor at discerning value. Nowhere in our education or experience is there any training in value sensitivity. Yet without value sensitivity creativity is a waste of time. The key process of ‘movement’ demands value sensitivity. The assessment of a newly fashioned idea demands value sensitivity. The extraction of key concepts demands value sensitivity.
