In entrepreneurship and innovation, we’re often taught to focus on execution: move fast, follow best practice, build the plane while flying it. But many of the hardest challenges are not about doing. They’re about deciding: what to pursue, what to ignore, what actually matters.

This interactive workshop explores critical thinking as a practical, lived skill for navigating uncertainty. Rather than treating it as cynicism or constant doubt, critical thinking is framed as discernment: the ability to ask better questions, notice blind spots, and make responsible decisions even when things are unclear. We place critical as a core personal leadership skill.

Grounded in real experience rather than abstract theory, the session is reflective and participatory. Students will be invited to think, discuss, and test ideas together, not just listen. The workshop is especially relevant for students adapting to a new cultural and professional environment, where familiar reference points may no longer apply.
