Report: Many challenges must be overcome in the business world of today, and in order to do so, employees must be able to think critically and creatively. Many businesses struggle to figure out how to create an environment where their workers can think critically and creatively, as well as how to motivate them to do so.
One option for encouraging both critical and creative thinking is to teach people different thinking techniques. This can help employees by giving them more confidence in their capacity to implement these strategies. To provide another level of workplace safety, encourage employees to express their opinions without being concerned about being judged. This may help to foster an environment where people feel more comfortable taking risks and trying new things.
Organizations may also establish procedures to identify areas where critical thinking is weak and challenges need to be overcome. One strategy for achieving this objective is to schedule routine check-ins with employees so they may talk about any problems they are experiencing at work. This can be useful in identifying any areas where workers feel they lack the capacity for critical thought. Finding barriers can also be done by regularly conducting surveys or one-on-one interviews with employees. This approach can make it easier to spot any overarching patterns in the resistance to critical thought.
If organisations implement the steps listed above, they can foster an environment that is more receptive to creative and critical thinking. Employees may be better able to find solutions to the issues the company is now experiencing as a result, which could ultimately lead to higher performance for the company. Two months later, you have received the feedback from all departments. There are 2 major issues identified that have negative impacts on the creative and critical thinking processes.

1. Forty percent of the employees said they cannot be creative because of the excessive workload.
2. Fifty-five percent of the employees agreed that groupthink usually happens in the meetings. They have to put their different opinion aside.

Question: Write a report responding to the case scenario. In the report, you must:

• Analyse the feedback received
• Additional support needed to address the issues
• Recommendations for improvements in future learning arrangements.
