 They are the “tree seers” who tend
to see finite elements of patterns
rather than the whole
 They are more comfortable in a

information
 Global thinkers lean towards non-
linear thought and tend to see the
whole pattern rather than the particle
elements
 They are the “forest seers” who give
attention only to the overall structure
and sometimes ignore details
