Overview

Info

Many of us dislike brainstorms as they don’t seem an easy or effective way to generate ideas or get fresh answers to issues. The problem is though we approach them poorly. When run well, brainstorms can be a great way to gather a diverse range of options and ideas.

In this session, we will teach you the art of facilitation to help you draw the best ideas and solutions from groups.

“The best way to have a good idea is to have lots of ideas.”
- Linus Pauling
