Abstract
This tool is concerned with the different kinds of knowledge that are best suited for different kinds of problems. (1) Expert agreement—something is objective if and only if it's based on “hard Data, facts, or observations” and the “tight agreement” between different observers as to the data, etc. (2) True formula—something is objective if, and only if, it's based on logical reasoning from self-evident first principles or premises. (3) Multiple perspectives—something is objective if and only if it's the product and the result of multiple points of view. (4) Expert disagreement—something is objective if and only if it's the product and the result of (that is, it survives) the most intense debate between the most disparate points of view. And finally, (5) Systems thinking—something is objective if and only if it's the product and the result of the most intense effort of sweeping in knowledge from the arts, humanities, professions, philosophy, sciences, etc.
