A Collaborative Discussion Methodology
Our diverse emotional interests are sure to stimulate argument and hurt. Instead of talking each other down; louder than all; more emotional than most, let us first determine our primary mutual interest and make that the specific focus.
The Challenge

The Fair and Deliberative Jury Process
The justice system is founded on the idea that ordinary people can be executors of justice. At the Center for Innovative Thinking, we uphold that idea, and we want to make sure those people are able to express themselves to the best of their abilities. We’ve developed a system to empower jurors and result in efficient, high quality trials that avoid costly, time-consuming retrials and other litigation.
Fair and Just Deliberations
The Center for Innovative Thinking has created a decision making system based on business programs in response to the urgent need to empower jurors and create an efficient trial outcome. This structured framework for decision making is based on reason and Fair and Just Deliberations, which helps jurors move past their assumptions to analyze information from other angles.
