what is strategic and broad thinker?
605218
First, some definitions....\n\nWhen a company needs to do something to fix a short-term issue that's called Tactical.\n\nWhen a company is thinking say, how it can add £20m to it's annual profits by say adding a new product line, that's strategy - it's about thinking long term about growth and change.\n\nSo Strategic and Broad Thinking is all about seeing the big picture - it's about knowing where everything slots together at a high level - not how individual jobs are done in the company.

Good Question, which took me several minutes of valuable on-line time here at the Library to even consider a possible cause.\n\nPerhaps this overdramatized dualistic Labeling is PROOF of the lazy "lowest common denominator" of COMMON humans? This form of Aristotelian "thinking" harks back to the Ancient Greeks, so is not a new phenomenon, at all. Notice all the bloody WARS throughout recorded human history?\n\nAlfred Korzybsky, author of "SCIENCE & SANITY" and other General Semantics books, identifies this rigid, two-valued form of "Logic" as THE key factor in mental break-downs in thought; i.e. ( human misuse of Language leading TO actual INsanity!). He made his own observations  in psychiatric wards personally supervised in his work. \n\nDoctor Korzybsky (sp?) recommends re-training in General Semantics & MULTI-VALUED Logical analysis & description as a key help, if not a  REMEDY for such insanities! (Of course, those  NOT caused primarily by actual, Neurological Disease.)\n\nBinary or Boolean "Logic" is usefull in design of  NON-organic systems such as computer hardware, but dangerous if used to address REAL Life problems, or in Science and the Arts. The  simplest set of "Logical" values would be Trinary; i.e 3-valued!\n"Yes", "No", and "Maybe/Don'tknow4sure"!  \n\nThe simplistic use of "LIBERAL" versus "CONSERVATIVE" stereotyping you HEAR on the (AM) Talk Shows probably indicates frightened but LAZY Thinking of the commoner who  calls-into these programs. LIB/CON dualisms could also be a deliberate & manipulated RHETORICAL ploy of political pseudo-thinkers who wish to push their OWN (often stupid!) AGENDA! \n\nOoops! Sorry. Got carried away there.  Go READ Korzybsky!

A benefit of being critical in thinking is that your typically detailed oriented and analytical in thought process. The down side is that your often mean to people.

Someone who can get complex ideas across simply.  Someone who is honest and direct.  Someone who doesn't lie or use emotional arguments to try and convince you to their side.

Neither. Broad generalizations typically are false.

Me?\n\nI don't think you can quantify such a thing. I am a scientist and work with many of the world's top minds in their specialized field. Could they manage to go grocery shopping on their own? No way, yet they can clone a cat. Go figure.\n\nA great author or poet is smart in one way, while a brilliant mathematician is smart in another.  \n\nI guess you want an all around Jack of All trades smart guy. Well Ken Jennings from Jeopardy has a lot of trivia knowledge and knows amny subjects, but no one would call him the smartest person on the planet.  Einstein was a great physicist yet he was a lousy artist.\n\nI think  you can be the best at somthing, but not the best at everything.

I guess it depends on people really.\n\nSome people read variety books widen their knowledge. However some people just asks for following reasons.\n\n1. Just making conversations\n\n2. Trying to impose or show that he/she is interest in knowledge.\n\n3. Try to make themselves to be more appealing as in the category of intelligence or the knowledge.\n\n4. Analysis of your character. Typically some people just asks to analyze of find out what kind of person you are as matter of intelligence, interest, cultural influence, and etc.

I have found curiosity to provoke the intellect. When you are curious about something, you research and learn more about it. Wisdom comes through understanding. Wisdon may or may not be tied to intellect as although you may seek wisdom through studies, you do not always find it.\n\nSeek and you shall find.\n\n+Michael

A distant view or prospect, especially one seen through an opening, as between rows of buildings or trees. \nAn avenue or other passage affording such a view. \n\nAn awareness of a range of time, events, or subjects; a broad mental view: "the deep and sweeping vistas these pioneering critics opened up" (Arthur C. Danto).

Kind of broad and non-descript.\nHow about a belief not based upon absolute truth.

Groupthink - when normally reasonable people begin to make irrational decisions as a group, characterised by uncritical acceptance of some extreme point of view.\n\nThink Heaven's Gate or Jonestown.

That's a very broad question. Could you be more specific?
