Brainstorming as a Tool for Measurement • Brainstorming is a wonderful tool for generating ideas – Opportunities for process improvement – Possible root causes to a problem • Brainstorming is often used in the Measure phase of a six sigma or lean six sigma project • Brainstorming is a valuable tool to use in any problem solving process How to Brainstorm 1. Assemble a cross functional team of no more than six people 2. Make sure each person understands the subject to be brainstormed 3. Three roles must be established before brainstorming starts: a) Facilitator: This person runs the session and must make sure the process is correctly followed. This person does not need to be a member of the team b) Scribe: This person records the ideas generated in the brainstorming session c) Timekeeper: This person keeps track of time 4. Facilitator opens the floor for discussion 5. The first team member gives his or her idea. If no idea is given the person must say pass. 6. The next person gives an idea or says pass. 7. Brainstorming continues until each person says pass. 8. The scribe should record each idea on a post it note 9. A Potential Pitfall: a) Don’t comment on ideas as they are given. The facilitator must make sure that all discussion is held until the end of the session 10. When the session ends (each member says pass), organize the ideas: a) Discussion can now be held on the merits of ideas. If the group agrees that certain ideas are not relevant, the idea or ideas can be removed from the list Ranking the Ideas Your brainstorming session generated several ideas. That is the good news. The bad news (it really is not bad) is that the work is just beginning. The team needs to prioritize the ideas in order to take action. The nominal group technique is a wonderful tool for ranking ideas. The tool is often used in the Analyze phase of six sigma and lean six sigma projects. Steps for Ranking Ideas: 3. Create a table (see table to right) for housing the ideas and voting on the ideas. It is best to create the table on a post it flip chart sheet and place the sheet on a wall. 4. Each member ranks the ideas independently of the other teams members. If there are, for example, nine ideas, each member ranks the ideas from one to nine with nine being the favorite idea and one being the least favorite idea. 5. Each member writes his/her results on the table 6. Sum the votes for each idea 7. The idea with the highest vote total is the “winner” 8. If there is a disparity in votes for a certain idea, the team can discuss the reasons and possibly change scoring.
