Brain writing -separate idea generation from discussion. -member individually write down their ideas. -this technique works best for teams who seem to be greatly influenced by the first ideas presented during a meeting. 2. Figuring Storming -putting yourself in new shoes. -you aim to do or think how someone might handle the situation. -works best for teams who find themselves coming across the same ideas for repetitive projects. 3. Online brainstorming (brain-netting) -ideas are archived in one central location. 4. Rapid ideation -team leader provides context beforehand. -a time limit is set for individuals to write down thoughts or ideas around the topic as possible, using any mediums available. -good for teams who tend to get sidetracked, or for placing a time limit on brainstorming sessions. 5. Round Robin brainstorming -team gathers in a circle. -each person offers an idea and a facilitator records each idea to be discussed when the sharing is done. -good when some of your team members have a tendency to stay quiet throughout meetings. 6. Starbursting -focuses on forming questions rather than answers. -assures that all aspects of the project are addressed before any work goes into executing it. -good for teams who tend to overlook certain aspects of a project and end up rushing things done last minute. 7. Stepladder technique -contribute individually before being influenced by everyone else -useful for teams who are easily influenced by only one or two members, leading to groupthink. THANK YOU
