Speed storming

Explanation:

A “round robin” is a game in which everyone gets a chance to participate. In the case of Speed storming that means everyone;

(1) must share an idea and

(2) wait until everyone else has shared before suggesting a second idea or critiquing ideas.

This is a great way to encourage shy (or uninterested) individuals to speak up while keeping dominant personalities from taking over the brainstorming session.

Speed storming combines an explicit purpose, time limits, and one-on-one encounters to create a setting where boundary-spanning opportunities can be recognized, ideas can be generated at a deep level of interdisciplinary specialty, and potential collaborators can be quickly assessed
