1 Speak Up

When your ideas are being overlooked, it's important to speak up confidently. Assert your presence by clearly stating your ideas and explaining their value. Ensure you have the floor before speaking, and articulate your suggestions with conviction. If interruptions occur, politely but firmly request to finish your point. Remember, it's not just about what you say, but how you say it. Confidence and clarity can make a significant difference in how your ideas are received.

If you have idea, make sure they are seen and heard. Brainstorming sessions are made for sharing thoughts and ideas. If you want to be heard, you will need to speak up and share ideas you have on your mind. You should feel empowered and confident within your team to share your thoughts. The floor is yours, as much as it is your colleagues. Don't feel intimidated! If you feel that you need some practice, tell yourself your ideas and practice how you want to share them in front of the bigger group. This can really help to feel more confident and strong when presenting your ideas!

2 Reflect & Refine

If your ideas are not getting traction, take a step back to reflect and refine them. Consider the feedback or lack thereof and ask yourself if your ideas align with the session's goals. Are they relevant and well-thought-out? Sometimes, rephrasing your suggestions or providing a clear rationale can make them more compelling. Use any constructive criticism to improve your pitches for future sessions.

3 Build Alliances

Building alliances with colleagues can be an effective strategy. Before the next brainstorming session, share your ideas with a few team members individually. This can help you refine your suggestions with their input and gain advocates who will support you during the meeting. When others recognize the merit of your ideas beforehand, they're more likely to back you up when you present them to the group.

Identifying allies who appreciate your ideas is like curating a team of idea champions, each contributing unique strengths. They don't just offer support; they become strategic partners, amplifying the resonance of your ideas like a well-coordinated orchestra. Together, their voices create a symphony of innovation that captivates the entire brainstorming session. With their backing, your ideas gain momentum, leaving a lasting impression, igniting creative sparks, and illuminating the path to success.

4 Timing Matters

Timing is critical in getting your ideas noticed. Pay attention to the flow of the conversation and look for the right moment to interject. If the session is moving quickly or focused on a different topic, wait for a natural pause or transition to introduce your idea. This ensures that your suggestion is relevant to the discussion at hand and has a better chance of being considered.

5 Seek Clarity

If you feel your ideas are being dismissed without consideration, seek clarity. Politely ask for specific reasons why your suggestion may not be suitable. This not only shows that you are open to feedback but also prompts a discussion that could reveal misunderstandings or provide insights into how you can better align your ideas with the team's objectives.

Not every idea will work out perfectly, but it's important to understand why. If that is not clear to you, ask for feedback. It's not a 'yes or no' discussion, many times, ideas come out from trying to shape an initial thought into another way. Have a discussion with your team to see if you can use some aspects of your idea and get their feedback about on what you should focus moving forward.

6 Follow Up

After the session, don't hesitate to follow up. If your idea was not addressed, reach out to the facilitator or team leader in a one-on-one setting. Express your continued interest in contributing and ask for an opportunity to discuss your idea further. This proactive approach demonstrates your commitment and may lead to a more thorough evaluation of your suggestions.

Sometimes, expressing suggestions in words isn't enough. Excite the room with samples of content that inspired the idea, create drafts of visuals and post copy build out the idea into a campaign that lasts longer than just one post, etc. This will go further than just a simple suggestion and should take only about 15 minutes to prepare.
