Media Reviews
As we make sense of change in the 21st century, a deep understanding of the Thinking Environment should be part of every leadership development programme. It intrinsically values the contribution and humanity of each person, and drives team effectiveness. Its power is evident in higher quality relationships, as well as in shorter, smarter meetings. Bravo! Rosemary Grant Statutory Director, Johnson & Johnson Medical UK The Thinking Environment is a revolutionary and inspiring tool. Martin Kalungu-Banda Author of Like Madiba: Leadership Lessons From Nelson Mandela More Time To Think is a vital contribution to our empowerment in transcending what often seem like insurmountable challenges.

Author Bio
Nancy Kline is President of Time To Think, an international leadership development and coaching company. She is also a published author and public speaker. Nancy created and pioneered the development of the theory and process called The Thinking Environment(R). This model allows people to turn their teams, organisations and relationships into Thinking Environments in which people at every level can think for themselves with rigour, imagination, courage and grace. The process increases the quality of thinking in, and thus of concrete results from, all human interactions, both in pairs and in groups, and decreases the amount of time it takes to achieve them. Nancy and the other Time To Think Consultants and Coaches do Thinking Environment work in companies, universities, human resource organisations, Coaching organisations, legal networks, government agencies and voluntary organisations. Thinking Environment work is active in the UK, Ireland, the United States, Spain and South Africa. Time To Think began in 1984 and grew out of Nancy's consulting and teaching work near Washington, DC, where she had served as a Founding Director of The Thornton Friends School for twelve years and as Director of The Leadership Institute for six years. She is a Fellow of Ashridge Management College, UK. Nancy was born and raised in New Mexico and lives in England with her husband, Christopher Spence.
