Hi, my name is Chuck Clayton and I created critical thinking and action. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am a mechanical engineer and business person by education, and background. I've worked on design and development in several different disciplines and industries. I have worked on ground support equipment for the space shuttle satellites, oilfield equipment, computers and more. engineering and business both require strong critical thinking, decision making and problem solving skills.

Along with my experience, I had one professor named Dr. g in my MBA program, who ignited my passion even further on how to think critically. Since then, I've had several small businesses and written three books, including one on communication and one on critical thinking, and I've created several courses. I have also chaired three significant charity events over the years My experience and knowledge helped me develop simple and powerful ways of doing projects and objectives, making decisions and critical thinking, in essence, to organize my thinking to be able to do an amazing number of projects and objectives. I didn't start out this way. Growing up, I had a tough time with school, and was mostly an average student through secondary school. However, I did respect education, and have tenacity, which helped me out a lot.

By college, I had to get better as an engineering student. And by my MBA program, I did pretty well. I suppose part of the reason I develop these skills is I was always incredibly impressed with my childhood heroes such as Captain Kirk James Bond and others who were able to think their way out of amazing situations. I always wondered how they did what they did. Most great answers start with the power of what Simon Sinek calls the power of y over the years might experience in engineering and science showed me ways to make better decisions and do problems. What I have done in this course is to organize these skills into a compact way of understanding them to be able to do a project, make a decision, and so forth.

I hope you enjoyed the course. And please contact me if you have any questions.
