7 steps to maximize brainstorming results in a remote or hybrid work environment, by Gleb_Tsipursky

have a lot of difficulty with production blocking. It’s harder for them to formulate ideas in an environment of team brainstorming. They generally think better in a quiet environment, by themselves or with one other person at most.
