Company-wide Brainstorming: Next Generation Suggestion Systems?
نویسنده
چکیده
In this argumentative paper, the web-based brainstorm application Mindpool is introduced as a complement to traditional corporate suggestion systems. Though being inspired by, and greatly related to, general electronic brainstorming (EBS) applications, Mindpool differs in several important aspects. By combining features traditionally found in EBS with the benefits of nominal groups Mindpool out-performs previous approaches. By facilitating asynchronous interaction and extending the scope of a brainstorm session to involve much larger groups the suggested approach leverage the potential of the whole organisation. However, the empirical support has yet to be provided and some potential weaknesses are identified and discussed
