Brainstorming


The power of collective brainstorming is fantastic. The goal of our project is to increase campus participation in community service, particularly during Friday service time. As SERV board's official Friday Service Coordinator, I jumped at the chance to be part of the team. Coming into the position I had a collection of Ideas I was passionate about. After some frustrating set backs I get burned out. Not only did I give up on my original ideas, but I stopped coming up with new ones.I finally got out of that funk this weekend with the help of my team. Getting people on board made a world of difference. Our group brainstorming session was very successful, as can be seen in the accompanying photo. Having lots of people in itself generated plenty of ideas, and helped me get re-excited, as can also be seen in the accompanying photo. The team of (time and emotional) investors will also be crucial in moving forward. We will each have our turn to get discouraged or to be the motivator. Together we should be able to carry the ideation and project to success!
