Why it works

Everyone believes brainstorming is about coming up with new ideas.

Effective strategic planning separates divergent and convergent thinking. Divergence creates options, explores possibilities, and offers creative solutions. Then, convergence makes choices, allocates resources, and executes. We suggest separating the two with a night of sleep (or at least lunch).

At PopUpThinkTank, we find that divergent thinking (brainstorming and ideation) also creates energy, builds community, and activates the next steps. We think this is just as important as the content of the ideas.

When a facilitator and client share the experience of planning and executing a PopUpThinkTank, they create energy, build trust, and expand their networks, setting the foundation for a thriving working relationship.
