About this course

What is Brainstorming training?

Brainstorming introduces practical methods for generating, sharing and developing ideas in groups. Participants use divergent thinking, mind mapping and structured prompts to explore alternatives while avoiding premature judgement.

The course also covers inclusive facilitation, active listening, creative experimentation and idea evaluation. Through group exercises, participants practise turning promising concepts into practical workplace improvement plans.

People with the right skills create brighter organisations and a stronger Thailand.
