Brainstorm - get it right
A good brainstorm gives you about 100 ideas from which you can choose the best ones. And the participants of a good brainstorm feel good – during and after (because they have a cool idea they can implement).
A bad brainstorm gives 3 ideas and it’s hard to squeeze anything out of them – let alone quality. And the participants are demotivated because they think they are not creative and have to implement ideas of questionable quality.
We will teach you how to do a good brainstorm.

Brainstorm is a technique for group work. Or actually techniques - because there are many types of brainstorms. The goal of a brainstorm is simple - to generate as many good ideas as possible.
generating a large number of ideas. It is not a simple technique – because when you use it, you hope that the brainstorm participants will come up with these good ideas. But whether this happens depends not only on the working principles themselves, but also on how the person running the brainstorm implements them. In addition, there are factors beyond control – a worse day, or simply an unwillingness to work together. Nevertheless, knowing a few techniques, what they mean and how they work on people allows you to react to such unforeseen situations.
