Crazy 8's are widely used in design sprints. Product managers can set up Crazy 8's to generate ideas in a short time frame.
The method is simple: sketch eight unique ideas in eight minutes (1 min/idea).
The underlying concept is the
creativity faucet idea, where the first ideas you generate are usually the least innovative.
By rapid-firing new ideas in succession, team members can push their thinking and explore unique angles to the challenge at hand.
Use this concept the next time your team is stuck with unoriginal ideas, or if you're in a time crunch.
