Sparkling Post-Its

"Gather round folks, we're reached the point of this brainstorm session ( aka "Ideation") where you put your favorite, best (or closest to the client's mission) ideas on a post-it note, then stick it on the wall in its proper category (or "bucket"). As the wall fills with post-its, ideas crackle and sparkle: just like the night sky on the Fourth of July!"...

..."Grab only the strongest ideas from the wall and further embellish it with your written description on how it will function in the real world. Afterward hand your write-up to the intrepid artist over there with a stack of paper in his marker stained hands. He'll turn your words into pictures that makes your idea come alive-- if he hasn't already produced a beautiful full-color illustration that he created when he overheard your impassioned discussion of your idea earlier in the day..."

Quick black and white sketch of people facing a wall plastered with Post-it notes with the words "Idea Wall" written above it.

Fancy Pants



Keeping my ears wide open for insights and comments while sketching at ideation sessions can create a wealth of additional image ideas. I'll quickly create a picture based on a overheard comment that I think can spark a new insight -or add momentum to the proceedings. Are the images useful?- I'd say its better to create and include them than leave them on the table (I like to think that I see ideas floating around at work sessions and its up to me to grab and visualize them).
Here's one example: a sharp-dressed man wearing a workshop-inspired comment. What better way to stand out than stand up with an outfit that speaks volumes!
