Rule of brainstorming: Start with weird ideas to get to good ideas.
At my company, when faced with tough problems, we encourage absurd, weird and hilarious ideas. Why? Because at minimum it takes the edge off high stakes problem solving. At best, it frees up creative thinking and generates good workable ideas.

- amelius 4y agoYes. This rule is often formulated as: you can't criticize other people's ideas in a brainstorm session.
