- 2. Comments from Day 3
- 4. Ideation golden rules 1. Take turns, contribute and let encourage others to contribute 2. Go for quantity: a stream a storm a typhoon of ideas “think aloud” 3. Don’t criticise ideas, avoid any reference to their feasibility at this stage 4. Bad ideas are allowed are welcome are encouraged 5. Practice active listening: rephrase, inquire, build-upon, combine
- 5. Activity 4.1: Brainstorming “Not my problem” problem Duration: 15 minutes
- 6. Ideation recommendations • Introduce/amplify diversity • Explore the problems as well as the solutions • Don’t praise ideas either, accept and “plus” them • Document, capture ideas • Look for gaps in the sequence of ideas, themes, types of ideas • It’s not a competition, it’s not a place to shine, avoid ownership of ideas • Create mutual trust, a safe space: no hierarchies, level playing field • Model the process, walk the talk • Don’t overdo it: 20 minute blocks with breaks • Be mindful of the “second half gain”: less obvious ideas emerge after the box has been defined with commonplace ideas • Don’t expect every session to be successful • Ideation is like Karaoke: https://www.timeout.com/los-angeles/clubs/the-10-rules-of- karaoke

- 8. Facilitation 1. Questions to ask before a session: Is this necessary? Who should be invited? Where? When? How long? Goals? Outcomes? Resources? Training? Information or prep work required? Agenda? How can I creatively prepare the session? What techniques? What can I prototype about this session? Define the session: explorative, generative, associative, provocative, intuitive… 2. Things to worry about during the session: Is this working? Is the atmosphere conducive? Do we need a break or to stop? Who is missing? What next? Are ideas flowing? Are we learning? 3. Decisions after the session: Document and reflect, share results, next steps, lessons learned, new questions, practice-practice-practice… 4. Recommended: 1.
