Learners get together with open minds to produce as many ideas as they can to address a problem statement in a judgment-free way:

• there are no limits

• no idea is a bad idea

• come up with as many ideas as possible

• the ideas can be products, systems, experiences or services.

"It's not about coming up with the right idea, it's about generating the broadest range of possibilities."

- d.school, An Introduction to Design Thinking PROCESS GUIDE
