Live and learn, after all the years of hearing the benefits of group brainstorming and being "forced" to engage its practice, I come to find it was cooked up by an addman, Alex Osborn in 1939 without a shred of objective evidence. It turns none of his hypothesized tenets are supported by evidence. Au contraire: working alone, criticism, and dynamic exchange and defense are the coin of the realm. A new book by Jonah Lehrer, explores realm of creativity. The link to NPR and a link to Fresh Air will get you their.
An remember think like a 7 year old, and avoid the 4th grade slump; we can only be adults so long.
