Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The group is using the brainstorming method because they are inviting all ideas and not criticizing the suggestions of other members, which is a key aspect of brainstorming. The functional approach and single question format are not applicable here, as the group is not trying to solve a specific problem or make a specific decision. Consensus seeking and the Standard Agenda are not being used because the group is still generating ideas and has not yet moved on to discuss and make decisions.
