Read this on Yahoo today and frankly found it to be my experience too....group meetings to 'brainstorm' are unproductive...what say you?

To clear up something - particularly for those who opt NOT to read the link - what they meant was do brainstorming meetings in particular 'dumb down' those with outstanding ideas....please read the link - really interested in this premise and what you think

I think the article was on point. Brainstorming seems to gloss over great ideas from individuals because of so many ideas that are coming to the table at one time; however, if there is a good leader or chair person than I think each individuals idea would be looked at and critiqued on the same level.

I don't think that they necessarily make you dumber, but I do think that without a clear agenda or aim that meetings can be a waste of time and therefore money. I think that you need a great chair or leader in a meeting to make it work and if you don't then someone needs to take the lead and work out what you want to acheive and the way to acheive it.

For sure, it seems to make you.
