How might I redesign the sales enablement program?
How might I equip our junior sales team to better educate our
customers so that they are ready to purchase?
How might I build an elearning course to teach sales reps how to sell
our product?

Generate Ideas - The Ideation Phase
1. Quantity over Quality2. Shooting down ideas3. Questioning validity or feasibility

(Radical) Ideation
Try: Thinking about things in a different context:
● Imagine 2 possible ways to make this training work for giraffes.
● Imagine 2 possible ways to make this training work on the moon.
● Imagine 2 possible ways to make this training work without sound.
