Possible exercise:
Take one decision, two groups.
First group works out all the details of what would happen in either case, best case scenario.
Second group works out all the details what would happen in either case, worst case scenario.
Don't be afraid to get creative or exaggerate, have fun with it.
Then write down the key points, and both groups make their decision.
Then discuss both options between groups, being more realistic.
Is there a difference in approach? Reflect as a group, what have you learned? Will you use this in future decisions?
If you have time, try this again but reverse group roles, with a different decision.
Bigger decisions work better, as they have larger consequenses. Try investing as a multinational, or use a current political topic. Controvercy works well if you wish to teach critical thinking without judgement.
