Lesson 5: Conceptual Blocks

by Joanna Ng

Conceptual Blocks are mental obstacles that constrain the way problems are defined.

1. Constancy

  • Vertical thinking (views)
  • One thinking language

2. Commitment

  • stereotyping based on past experience
  • Ignoring commonalities

3. Compression

  • Distinguishing from the ground
  • Artificial constraints

4. Complacency

  • Non-inquisitiveness
  • Non-thinking
