What methods are used in the Brainstorm framework?

The Brainstorm framework is a technique used to generate ideas and solve problems, helping teams or individuals to come up with a large number of ideas in a short amount of time, and then find the best solution through group discussion and integration.

1. Define the problem or objective: Clearly outline what needs to be addressed or achieved, ensuring that all stakeholders understand the essence of the issue.
2. Establish rules: ensure all participants adhere to the guidelines of Brainstorming, such as no criticism, encouraging free expression, and generating lots of ideas.
3. Generate ideas: Within a set time limit, generate as many ideas as possible without criticism. Encourage participants to share independent, unrestricted thoughts and document the ideas.
4. Grouping and organizing: Classify and organize the generated ideas, identifying related or similar concepts.
5. Evaluation and selection: Assess the organized ideas and identify the most promising ones. Decision-making can be done through voting, discussions, or other evaluation tools.
6. Choose the best option: Select the optimal solution from the identified ideas. This typically requires consensus and discussion among team members.
7. Develop an action plan: identify the specific steps and timeline for implementing the chosen solution.
8. Implementation and monitoring: The formulated action plan will be put into practice and progress and results will be continuously monitored.
