High Velocity Brainstorming
Client Testimonials

"The High-Velocity Brainstorming sessions that you conducted for us were wonderful. We achieved all the goals we set out to accomplish and more. Many of the participants were amazed at the number of ideas generated in just two days. The Brainstorm Report captured every one of these ideas, so that we can reference it when working on additional projects in the future. Everyone came back to work full of energy and commitment to continue on the designated projects."
Sue Mongeon, AT&T

"I really appreciate the insight, guidance and just plain hard work you put into our MTV brainstorming sessions. I want to particularly note how impressed we all were with Idea Champions' insight and understanding of our business and creative needs, the varied and constructive techniques used to get us through the creative process, your dedication to the entire process, and your willingness to work with us on recommending and designing the next critical steps after the brainstorming sessions."
Gabrielle Del Sesto, MTV

"Several of the ideas we came up with in the High Velocity Brainstorming session are being developed into concrete projects which are looking like very profitable opportunities. What is especially important, though, is the enthusiasm and energy level people still have as a result of the session. There is much more open communication. More people are open to new ideas. More people are carrying through on project assignments. As a result of the session, we have more buy in to the business objectives and have all kinds of people looking for new opportunities."
Rudy Villa, GE

"Your help in getting us to think about how to leverage our skills in the organization was invaluable. All my managers were very pleased with both the process and outcome of the High Velocity Brainstorm session. In my humble opinion, Idea Champions is in a class by itself."
Carol Wood, Champion International

"Since we conduct many brainstorming sessions at AT&T, we felt that we had heard almost every idea already. We hoped that the session with Idea Champions might yield one new idea. I can only say that we were overwhelmed with the volume of ideas that were generated. We got not only one new idea, but dozens! Of these ideas, we looked at four in depth and at this point all four of the ideas are being developed into real, marketable products. One product was so simple and effective that we will be introducing it on the next few months. Participants left the session with renewed excitement in their jobs and expressed repeatedly how happy they were that someone was finally listening to their ideas. After two days of intense brainstorming, people were not burned out; instead, they were re-energized and had a great feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment."
John Dalrymple, AT&T

"Idea Champions brainstorming presentation was not only the best session at this year's meeting... it was the best one we've ever had. And we've experienced some very dynamic sessions over the years."
Tom Gowan, Emmis Broadcasting

"I am delighted with the work that you did for us in Product Development. You were able to mold a room of stolid and crusty business people into a lively team of innovators. Through your leadership of the brainstorming session, we gained more than 100 original ideas of high quality. The best of these will guide AT&T's development for years to come and will be enjoyed by our customers. Many who joined the session were amazed at their own creativity, which they never knew they possessed. Everyone felt that it was an outstanding day, both personally and professionally."
Robert Rubin, AT&T
