Frequently asked questions

Why do most brainstorming sessions fail?
Because they mix idea generation with idea judgement, which kills creativity — people self-censor if their ideas might be criticised immediately. Effective brainstorming separates the two phases: first generate freely (no judgement, quantity over quality, wild ideas welcome), then evaluate and prioritise. Other common failures: the loudest voices dominate (use silent written brainstorming first), no clear challenge defined, and no follow-up action assigned. Structure fixes all of these.
Is it really free?
Yes — no email, no sign-up.
Can I print it more than once?
Yes — print as many copies as you need.
