B-school has begun with a series of 'what personality are you' type exercises, which, while supported by fluff, do reveal an interesting bit about our thinking techniques.
Convergent versus divergent problem solving is one of the underlying thinking processes that came to fore. It was interesting to note how one group thinks of the other as well. I suspect there is a fair amount of condescension involved. Along the lines of - 'she's clearly lacking creative ability' and 'he just can't adhere to the rules!'.
Interesting stuff. Helps me better understand AND respect the other lot. I won't reveal where on the spectrum I lie ;)
