'''Brainstorming''' is a [[Groups|group]] [[creativity]] technique designed to generate a large number of [[idea]]s for the solution to a problem. The method was first popularized in the late 1930s by Alex Faickney Osborn in a book called ''Applied Imagination.'' Osborn proposed that groups could double their creative output by using the method of brainstorming.

There have been numerous attempts to improve brainstorming or replace it with more effective variations of the basic technique. Although traditional brainstorming may not increase the productivity of [[groups]], it may still provide benefits, such as enhancing the enjoyment of group work and improving morale. It may also serve as a useful exercise for team building.
