Ideation Workshops

What is ideation?

Ideation is the process of generating, developing and communicating new ideas. Ideation workshops are all about generating as many ideas as possible in a short period of time. They are fun and energetic exercises that challenge your team to adopt a design thinking mindset. A good ideation workshop is a combination of three things:

• A good facilitator who will guide your team
• An idea generator - which can be an object or process that expands the mind for more creativity, often with cards or word prompts
• Validation and refinement techniques that prevent your ideas from getting stuck in the conceptual phase

After we have generated plenty of different initial concepts during your Ideation Workshop, it's up to you to decide which ones should be developed further.

When to do an Ideation Workshop

The right time to call BTNG to help you run an ideation Workshop is when you have a specific need in mind and want to generate new ideas to solve challenges. In Ideation Workshops, we help your team come up with different concept solutions for an existing problem or issue.

At BTNG we're big supporters (and fans) of OKR's. A modern way to set goals measured in results. Whenever you've (re-)adjusted your OKR's, we'd love to have a chat to figure out which challenges to solve.

How we structure an ideation session

Before we begin, we make sure that the right people are invited. We make sure not to include only people from your team but break down silos by including a healthy mix of talent and skills.

We make sure to include one of our top-notch Facilitators specialized in running a successful ideation workshop. During the ideation session, he or she will keep track of the time and schedule. All the innovative ideas created with insightful and dynamic thinking will be documented and shared.

We are a remote company and love working digitally. Our suitable location is Butter. A meeting tool that has an amazing integration with Miro. A digital whiteboard tool.
