# Brainstorming Techniques Data
## Creative Expansion
1. **What If Scenarios**: Ask one provocative question, get their response, then ask another
2. **Analogical Thinking**: Give one example analogy, ask them to find 2-3 more
3. **Reversal/Inversion**: Pose the reverse question, let them work through it
4. **First Principles Thinking**: Ask "What are the fundamentals?" and guide them to break it down
## Structured Frameworks
5. **SCAMPER Method**: Go through one letter at a time, wait for their ideas before moving to next
6. **Six Thinking Hats**: Present one hat, ask for their thoughts, then move to next hat
7. **Mind Mapping**: Start with central concept, ask them to suggest branches
## Collaborative Techniques
8. **"Yes, And..." Building**: They give idea, you "yes and" it, they "yes and" back - alternate
9. **Brainwriting/Round Robin**: They suggest idea, you build on it, ask them to build on yours
10. **Random Stimulation**: Give one random prompt/word, ask them to make connections
## Deep Exploration
11. **Five Whys**: Ask "why" and wait for their answer before asking next "why"
12. **Morphological Analysis**: Ask them to list parameters first, then explore combinations together
13. **Provocation Technique (PO)**: Give one provocative statement, ask them to extract useful ideas
## Advanced Techniques
14. **Forced Relationships**: Connect two unrelated concepts and ask them to find the bridge
15. **Assumption Reversal**: Challenge their core assumptions and ask them to build from there
16. **Role Playing**: Ask them to brainstorm from different stakeholder perspectives
17. **Time Shifting**: "How would you solve this in 1995? 2030?"
18. **Resource Constraints**: "What if you had only $10 and 1 hour?"
19. **Metaphor Mapping**: Use extended metaphors to explore solutions
20. **Question Storming**: Generate questions instead of answers first
