Today we will describe the Structural Thinking Preference.

Structural Thinking (represented by the color green) is:

• Practical, 
• Cautious, 
• Predictable and 
• Methodical.
  

This type of thinking combines sequential thought with the love of practical applications. The structural part of the brain excels in
drawing comparisons, looking for connections, and creating order out of chaos.

At WindRiver Strategies we recognize that investment made to create collaborative, higher morale teams must result in higher productivity.  Did you know that research shows that multi-tasking makes us less effective and increases mistakes?  At some level you have likely suspected this and observed it. Our brains aren’t necessarily wired to be productive in the way that work happens today.

So what is a person to do? Here’s our top tips for maximizing your time based on your own thinking and
behaving preferences.  Enjoy the series!

#1 Tip for Structural Thinkers
Don’t overschedule yourself! Always leave buffer time. Things will inevitably pop up and you'll need to be able to respond without compromising other planned activities

Additional Productivity Tips

• Prioritize your to-do list. Don’t focus too much on items that add little value to the project.
• Build a backwards calendar starting with the deadline to make sure your tasks will all be accomplished in time.
• Be tolerant of “Free Thinking” and pauses / gaps in the process for creative and analytical sake
• Don’t feel silly about the giddy feeling you get when you check off a box!

"What needs to happen first? What should happen next?" are common questions for the Structural Thinker
