A nice book I liked is "The Wisdom of Crowds" by James Surowiecki. From what I remember, the gist is you want people to be coming up with solutions to a problem independently, and then you want them to voice their proposals independently (so as not to be stymied by others' ideas). And then you want to aggregate these solutions/proposals. The beneficial dynamic breaks down if people around the table share their ideas in order one after another. https://www.amazon.com/Wisdom-Crowds-James-Surowiecki/dp/0385721706 https://www.amazon.com/Wisdom-Crowds-James-Surowiecki/dp/038...
