ABSTRACT

This scenario is a case study that is used in business schools, but it is based on an investigative series of child labor in the production of cocoa that was authored by Sumana Chatterjee (2008). She described her experiences: “My job was to spark the thinking process” (para 2). This sort of messy realworld problem is exactly the sort that requires critical thinking. Apply what you have learned in this book to this problem and the many others that you will face as a responsible adult in the 21 st century. You need to frame the problem in multiple ways and then determine which thinking skills will help you get to a desired goal.
