How to use the Brainwriting template
Ground Rules
This is a safe space for openly sharing ideas:
Listen with an open mind
Remember everyone’s opinion is valid
Focus on generating ideas, not judging them
Step 1: Frame the problem
Define and share a clear topic or theme. This will be the focus for the brainstorm.
Step 2: Brainstorm
Add your name to a sticky note. Set the timer for 5 minutes and individually brainstorm an idea for the problem.
Step 3: Rinse and repeat
Start the timer again, move to the idea on your right. Add or improve upon that idea. Do this vertically. Think of it as an idea + 1.
Repeat the process for a few rounds.
Step 4: Discuss and vote
Discuss all the ideas you came up with. Vote on ideas or group them to see which are the most feasible.
