Ask each participant to build on his colleague’s ideas, improving them or using them as inspiration to generate another three ideas.
If the idea of this is to eliminate fear in sharing, wont the lack of anonymity contribute to the introverts' fear of expressing their ideas? also if this ends in a group discussion, doesn't that mean that the discussion will likely be dominated by a select few? I'm just not sure that this is a reliable method to make sure everyone is included.
When each “pass” takes place, Mattimore points out, the facilitator can suggest different ideation techniques or triggers. This helps people who may not be able to think of any new ideas and may help them to see the ideas their colleagues have written in a new light. It also helps the team generate a wider diversity of ideas.
I really like this because it highlights the benefit of working with a team and sharing ideas. I think that in academia (and general work environments), learning from others can be overlooked by producing original ideas, so I like the focus on growing from various ideas and diversifying team outcomes and work.
