Storyboarding is about arranging and categorizing ideas and solutions in a linear format and order. It’s best done after brainstorming to generate ideas.
I love this method! It can give people other thoughts about the problem especially after brainstorm. And this way helps to clear people's mind and prepare to work on it.
Worst ideas
It is like think out of the box, very interesting and I'll use it.
Mattimore characterizes brainwalking as the most flexible of the seven ideation techniques, because it can be easily combined with other techniques. It’s also an ideal way to ensure that everyone in your group gets an opportunity to contribute ideas. Here’s how it works: The group first selects several aspects of the problem around which it wants to generate ideas. These become the creative prompts for the group to work with. The facilitator tapes several pieces of paper to a wall. Each member of the group gets a marker. Participants write their ideas on a paper and then rotate, adding their thoughts own original and ideas to the page as well as building upon those of their colleagues. This can also be done by having a group sit in a circle and have the papers passed one person to the right or left after several minutes of brainstorming. 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 the idea. Just like the old saying goes: two heads are better than one. Triggered brainwalking can be very helpful. I think that is also why we have to talk other classmates about our wicked problem.
generate 20 to 30 assumptions, true or false, that you may be making about it. Then pick several of these assumptions and use them as thought starters and idea triggers to generate new ideas. Be sure to consider all aspects of your business, including consumer or customer beliefs, manufacturing, materials, pricing, distribution and product positioning.
I think it is incredible and also was the key to Mattimore's success. For me, it also can be a breakthrough. If there are some assumptions I can make.
Round robin
I never heard this method before. It is a new idea for me and can be very helpful when group discussion. However, as a person who prefer to brainstorm and ideate by myself, it will not help a lot...
So much so, that it has become hard to filter out the good tools from the bad. To relieve you from that stress, we have listed our top 10 ideation tools
It is true that I just come up with good ideas sometimes. It can be very important that there are some ways to help me out.
