How to Do Brainstorming

Brain­storm­ing is a struc­tured process for gen­er­at­ing ideas. Although indi­vid­u­als may brain­storm on their own, it’s typ­i­cal­ly a process that involves group dis­cus­sion. Learn the five rules of effec­tive brain­storm­ing, the facilitator’s role, and how to use sup­port­ing tech­niques such as the affin­i­ty dia­gram, PICK chart, and N/3 mul­ti-vot­ing as part of your brain­storm­ing session.
