Clark L. Murray Brainstorming – Ideation
I design, plan, lead, and report on a wide range of brainstorming sessions. From a 90-minute quick and dirty session with five participants in a conference room…to a four-day strategic war gaming offsite with 50 senior executives. I am pleased to share “cleansed” examples of my session flows and exercises.
“Practicalized” Techniques
I am Synectics-trained and have a portfolio of techniques that combine creativity theory with what works in the real world. I mix, match, and adapt these “practicalized” techniques to meet your precise needs and to fit the unique culture of your team.
“Goal-Focused”
While sessions should be energizing and enjoyable, the goal is to generate useful output. Sessions should not be goofy playtime. My sessions treat participants’ time as precious and make every second count.
