Warm-Up Exercises

Why do them?

Warm-Up Exercises

To open up a group or team's creative thinking Warm-Up Exercises are very helpful.

The exercises help to loosen up paradigms, mindsets, and points of view brought to a creative thinking session.

Some goals ofWarm-Up Exercises are to encourage people to:

a. look beyond the obvious or known answers (“correct” answers)

b. stretch thinking c. breakout of establish thinking d. look for multiple possibilities

Divergent thinking

Convergent thinking
