Brainstorming is organized with one clearly formulated goal - to find ways to solve a specific problem. No related problems are allowed to be discussed during the search process.

Rule number eight: break down the global task into smaller ones

Brainstorming serves a utilitarian function: several people propose solutions to the problem that can be applied in the company's practical activities. To achieve the expected result, the brainstorming organizer must set the task correctly. If the formulation is too general or vague, the discussion will result in lengthy discussions about everything at once and nothing. Instead of the question "how to increase the company's profit?" brainstorming participants should propose more specific tasks such as "how to reduce the cost of the product."

Rule number nine: you namibia email list need a team

Brainstorming is not possible alone, it is a collective method of finding optimal solutions. The number of participants also matters: three people are too few, and ten are too many, so it is best to recruit 5 to 8 participants in a group.

The idea that the more people take part in brainstorming, the better, is wrong: the most active will speak out, while the less assertive will prefer to remain silent and sit behind other people's backs.

Rule number ten: you can’t do without a presenter

Conducting a brainstorming session requires competent management of the process. The leader can be a company employee who understands the technology of organizing brainstorming and has a high level of empathy. If a task is set for a group of participants and a person is not appointed who will monitor the course of collective thought and, if necessary, direct it in the right direction, the creative process can quickly get out of control and not produce the expected results. The leader monitors compliance with the rules of brainstorming, does not allow unproductive disputes to flare up and records the proposals of team members.
