brainstorming session

Group idea generation

A brainstorming session is a meeting where participants generate ideas freely, usually without immediate criticism or filtering.

The goal is quantity over quality—encouraging wild suggestions that might spark better ones.

We had a brainstorming session about the product launch.

The format has become standard in corporate and creative settings, though results vary.
