Brainstorming
Brainstorming is a very good way for a group of people to create
lots of ideas and thoughts quickly. At the top of either a large
sheet of paper on at the top of the white-board write down the
nature of the problem. At this stage it is important not to write
down solutions to the problem.
In lists underneath the problem one person writes down the words,
phrases or comments provided by the group. As more suggestions
are given they will spark off more ideas.
Create as many ideas as possible but do give yourself a time deadline
to work to. It may take some time for creative ideas to emerge.
It is now time to sort out the ideas. Some of the ideas can be
dismissed. Some may prove to be totally impractical. They may
prove to be too expensive or the material may be totally impractical.
