Separating a whole into its constituent parts.
Analytical
thinking is closely related to logical step-by-step reasoning. Logic
has two main parts: deduction (inferring from the general to the
particular; the process of deducing a conclusion from what is known
or assumed) and induction (inferring or verifying a general law of
principle from the observation of particular instances).
Judging people,
establishing success criteria, evaluating, appraising performance
and so on. In all valuing there is an objective element and a
subjective one. What you actually value depends very largely upon
your environment and
culture.
