Organisational Learning Tool: The Left Hand Column

Inner dialogue is the 'private conversation' that we hold with ourselves. During our conversations with others, also known as 'public conversations,' we filter the private conversation and only make public that which we assume will be accepted by others, or will assist us in getting what we want. Dr. Harold Hillman talks about the importance of sharing our 'private conversations,' also known as left hand columns, to increase the quality of our thinking and decisions.
