1 Change Scenery

Sometimes, all it takes to rejuvenate your brainstorming process is a change of scenery. Being in the same environment can stagnate your thoughts, so try moving to a different room, heading outdoors, or even working from a café. New surroundings can stimulate your senses and provide fresh stimuli, leading to new perspectives and ideas. This simple yet effective tactic can break the routine and encourage your brain to form novel connections, fostering innovation.

If you're struggling to generate innovative solutions during brainstorming sessions, try adopting different brainstorming techniques such as mind mapping, role-playing, or reverse brainstorming to stimulate creativity. Encourage a diverse group of participants to contribute ideas freely without fear of judgment, and consider incorporating outside perspectives through guest speakers or experts in related fields. Break the problem down into smaller, more manageable parts, and allow for a period of incubation where ideas can percolate before revisiting the session. Remember, innovation often thrives when approached from unconventional angles and with an open mind.

I have found that when I am think over a problem that affects a certain group of people, I like to place myself in their surrondings. This helps me understand them, their problem and their world when I need ro define and explore a problem further.

2 Solo Thinking

Group dynamics can sometimes inhibit individual creativity. If you find yourself stuck during a group brainstorming session, take a moment for solo thinking. Step away from the group and give yourself space to ponder independently. This allows you to explore ideas without the pressure of immediate feedback or the influence of others' opinions. Afterward, you can return to the group with a renewed outlook and potentially innovative solutions that might not have surfaced in the collective setting.

3 Diverse Input

Innovation thrives on diversity, so if you're struggling to come up with new ideas, seek input from people with different backgrounds and expertise. Engaging with individuals outside your immediate team can provide unique insights and challenge your usual way of thinking. This cross-pollination of ideas can lead to unexpected and innovative solutions that you might not have considered before, enhancing the overall brainstorming process.

I have found that incorporating time into the meeting for feedback on weekly tasks with new staff provides the opportunity for ideas and experiences to be shared between entry level staff and those with 5 to 15 years experience. The 'newbies' get the experience of those who have seen the situation before, and the experineced gain the insight from a more youth and technology driven group who are clients share greater similarities to.

4 Visual Aids

Visual aids can be powerful tools in unlocking creativity during brainstorming sessions. Utilize whiteboards, sticky notes, or even digital drawing tools to visualize your thoughts. Drawing or mapping out ideas can help clarify complex concepts and reveal connections between seemingly unrelated points. This method can also make it easier for others to understand and build upon your ideas, potentially leading to that breakthrough solution you're searching for.

As some one who realized latter in life that the way I think is different for others in that I cannot think visually in my head. The use of mindmaps and problem trees not only provides an outlet to my narrative thinking for me to refer, but a great base to share my thinking procress to others.

5 Question Assumptions

Often, innovative solutions are hindered by our own assumptions. To overcome this, actively question the status quo and challenge existing beliefs about the problem you're trying to solve. Ask yourself what would happen if you inverted an assumption or considered the opposite of a commonly held belief. This approach can open up a whole new realm of possibilities and lead to truly innovative ideas that push boundaries and redefine what's possible.

6 Time Constraints

Setting time constraints can paradoxically enhance creativity. By limiting the time you have to brainstorm, you force your mind to focus and generate ideas more quickly. This sense of urgency can reduce overthinking and encourage more spontaneous, innovative thoughts. Try setting a timer for a rapid ideation session and watch as the pressure helps to unlock new ideas that might have been lurking just beneath the surface.

In my experience mixing it up can bring many new ideas: do brainstorming activities individually and in groups, put different time limits on some of the activities, and do activities (ice breakers) that are very different from the topic at hand - taking your attention away can help coming back to it with renewed perspective. If you have the space, use different spaces for different activities, moving around can also bring new inspiration.
