Critical Thinking
Scenario questions that reward careful judgement — and spotting when there isn't enough information to draw a conclusion.
1. You must lead your team across a river. The caretaker tells you the AVERAGE depth at the crossing is 0.1 m. What is the best action?
2. You hear gunshots from a neighbour's yard followed by persistent crying. What can you conclude?
3. A CEO faces overlapping meetings: (A) survival strategy, (B) lawyers on a debt attachment due tomorrow, (C) your only consistent major client wanting to cut orders, (D) averting a staff demonstration in an hour. You can attend one now — which is the priority?
4. You are unavailable on the days AFTER your strategy reviews, and on Mondays and Fridays. This week your reviews are on Monday and Thursday. When can you meet a key client?
