Silent Brainstorming

Hi,

 

I would like a feature where people on a board can ‘silent brainstorm’ 

 

The how - people write down on many stickies as they like their ideas or answers to a question without anyone else seeing. Then when the timer is up or everyone is done, all the stickies are revealed. 

 

The why - sometimes when people are group brainstorming people can hold back their idea if they see someone else has put something similar. I would like to increase team discussion on the similar/same stickies to help the team understand the differences or similarities in thinking that happens within the team. 

 

Thanks,

 

Joe

@Joe Fitzpatrick -

There is a way to workaround this by having folks using the Bulk Mode for sticky note creation. That way, they can enter all of their ideas and when the facilitator says time is up, everyone generates the sticky notes from the entered list of ideas.
