Today i went to ING company at klang for meeting. During the meeting, we disucssed about a question which we hardly could get the asnwers, most of my collogue was stucked, and dint really contribute much ideas. After the meeting end, my manager was quite disappointed. All of the sudden, i recalled that i had learn about a technique from critical thinking which i can generate or get more ideas from other people which is BRAIN STORMING. I written down the BRAIN STORMING steps in a paper and pass to my manger. The steps of BRAIN STORMING are
1-Briefing the team about the problem
Define the problem to be brainstormed and make sure every one is clear about the problem
that need to explore.
2- Remember Three Rules of Brainstorming which are generate as many solution as possible- quantity count,wild ideas are encourage, and no criticism is allow,judgemnt is deferred later.
3- Warm up exercise
Conduct a 5 minute warm up exercise in creativity thinking using a simple, familiar object.
Some expert recommend that background music be used during the exerise.
4-Conduct the Brainstorming Activity
•Set a time limit (20 to 30 minutes) and ask the team members to start sharing ideas.
•They can begin by bringing out obvious, well-known ideas .. This is known as “load
dumping”.
•Encourage more creative ideas by occasionally throwing out something really outrageous.
5-Closing-Down
•Once the flow of ideas has slowed down to a trickle and the previously announced time
limit is coming up, give a 3-minute warning. Some of the best ideas can be generated
during the extra time period at the end.
My manager was suprised and happy when he read my suggestion, its was very helpfull. Soon he held the meeting again by using these 5 steps of brain storming. Most of my collogue was contributed alot of ideas especially wild ideas that needed by the manager. After the meeting end, my manager treated us to have lunch in japanese restaurant, haha, that was a enjoyable meal since i dont need to spend my own my pocket money....
