Group generation of ideas in writing and in complete silence through the circular circulation of the sheet of ideas among members to expand and complement each other's opinions successively.
Eliminating the voice of dominant people, neutralizing organizational hierarchies and completely freeing introverts from public speaking anxiety.
Increasing organizational commitment: Each member writes 3 ideas and gives the sheet to the next person to complete in 3 rotations, team building suggestions, training and rewards.
100% and equal participation of all members, generation of ideas without noise, high variety and depth of proposals due to the opportunity for individual reflection.
Decreased verbal excitement and lively interactions, and dependence on people's ability to clearly express ideas in writing.
Brainwriting technique is a revolutionary answer to the psychological shortcomings of verbal brainstorming.
In this method, participants sit around a table in complete silence. Each person takes a piece of paper and writes down their initial idea to solve the problem. After a few minutes, with the facilitator's sign, the cards are passed clockwise to the next person. Each member reads the previous person's idea and is obliged to complete it, add leaves or add a new angle to it. This rotation is usually repeated in 3 to 4 rounds. In the end, dozens of cooked-up, multi-layered ideas are on the table without a word being exchanged.
