Why Design Brainstorms Need Structure

An unstructured brainstorm produces 50 ideas, 45 unusable. The remaining 5 compete for attention and nothing gets decided. Structure focuses creative energy.

The Whiteboard Brainstorm Framework

Divide your whiteboard into 4 quadrants: 1. How Might We statements — Frame problems as opportunities. 2. Crazy ideas — No judgment. Wild ideas welcome. 3. Feasible ideas — What can we actually build? 4. Selected ideas — The 3 we will pursue.

Step-by-Step

1. Open the Free Whiteboard. 2. Draw the 4-quadrant framework. 3. Write the design challenge at the top. 4. Phase 1 (5 min): HMW questions in Q1. 5. Phase 2 (5 min): Crazy ideas in Q2. 6. Phase 3 (10 min): Feasible ideas in Q3. 7. Phase 4 (5 min): Vote and select for Q4. 8. Screenshot and create actions.

Brainstorm Rules

No criticism during idea generation. Build on others' ideas ("Yes, and."). One conversation at a time. Go for quantity first. Stay focused on the challenge.

Quick Reference: Phases

Frame (5 min): HMW questions → Q1. Dream (5 min): Crazy ideas → Q2. Ground (10 min): Feasible solutions → Q3. Decide (5 min): Vote and select → Q4. Total: 25 minutes.
