All participants areencouraged to say whatever ideas come to their mind, whether they seem relevant or not. Noone will be criticized for any ideas, no matter how goofy it seems, as the responsibility of theparticipants is to generate views and not to vet them. This group technique may be carried out with specialized groups like actual user, middlelevel managers and stake holders.
