Introduction
People tend to process information using the dominant side of their brains. However, decision making is enhanced when all senses are used. This includes using your less dominant side. The processing styles that are characteristically used by your right or left brain support convergent (left side) or divergent (right side) critical thinking.
Left-side processing includes the following:
- Linear
- Sequential
- Symbolic
- Logical
- Verbal
Right-side processing includes the following:
- Holistic
- Random
- Concrete
- Intuitive
- Nonverbal
