Definition of brainstorm: “A spontaneous group discussion to produce ideas and ways of solving problems” —New Oxford Dictionary of English
I love brainstorming! Let’s say you are facing a particular challenge, or you have the seeds of an idea in your head or you want to generate lots of ideas and strategies.
