Brainstorming
• The process used to find a solution to a problem by collecting ideas without regard for feasibility, which occur from a group of people brought together for that specific purpose.
Rules for Brainstorming• No criticism allowed• Work for quantity• Piling-on welcome• Free-for-all
No Criticism Allowed
• People automatically tend to evaluate each suggested idea - their own, as well as others
• No criticism• No comments: positive or negative
Go for Quantity
• “Quantity breeds Quality” by Alex Osborne
• People must experience “brain-drain” before the innovative, creative ideas can surface.
• Therefore, the more ideas, the more likely they are to be quality ideas.
Piling-on Welcome• Piling-on occurs when one
member’s idea produces a similar idea or an enhanced idea in another member.
• All ideas should be recorded.
Free-for-All
• Outrageous, humorous, and seemingly unimportant ideas should be recorded.
• It is common for the most off-the-wall idea to be one wherein lies the solution for the problem.
• The sky is the limit.
