Crossroads Decision® Programs
What is Crossroads Decision®?
Crossroads Decision® is a powerful tool that helps young adults look at important decisions from a number of different perspectives. It helps them make better decisions by forcing them to move outside habitual ways of thinking. As such, it helps them understand the full complexity of their decisions, and spot issues and opportunities to which they might otherwise be blind.
It’s a training program chalked full of expert facilitation and hands-on experiential exercises which allows for effective learning and retention to occur.
It uses The Six Thinking Hats® as the foundation to enhance thinking skills and modify behavior.

Past Trainings
Critical Thinking Program for Student Athletes
Every day, student athletes are faced with split second decisions that can change their lives drastically. More often than not, these student athletes have not been equipped with the proper critical thinking skills that are needed to make the right decisions. What do these athletes have to lose? Besides possible scholarships and the ability to actively pursue sports, these students risk their reputations, legal freedom and even worst; their lives.
Critical Thinking Program for At Risk Youth
Every day, youth are forced to make split second decisions that can alter their lives drastically. Sadly, underprivileged youth are less equipped to think critically than those who are not considered at risk youth. What do these youths have to lose? Besides legal freedom due to gang involvement or substance abuse, at risk youth are at much higher risk of a lower earning potential across their lifetime as a result of compromising their safety, health and even lives.
