Reverse Brainstorming

Reverse brainstorming is a creative problem-solving technique used in meetings to explore challenges, issues, or obstacles from a different perspective. Unlike traditional brainstorming, where participants generate ideas to solve a problem, reverse brainstorming encourages participants to identify potential problems or root causes. By focusing on problems first, participants can gain a deeper understanding of the issues at hand and develop innovative solutions that address underlying concerns. This technique promotes critical thinking, open-mindedness, and the identification of overlooked issues, making it a valuable tool in meetings aimed at problem identification and resolution.
