THE K4S GROUP

We are a group of academic, commercial and military individuals who gather to study, develop and teach better ways of understanding.  Thinking about thinking – how to improve the way we view the world and mitigate personal and group biases – is key. This site is our launch pad for distributing lessons, methods, techniques and training exercises to help ourselves and others get better at what we do.
