- The decision-matrix method: selection criteria, reference concept, ranking of your
concepts (explain why you assigned 0, + or – to your ideas).



- Project selection. Identify your top idea.

Top Ideas:
Corporate Fidget
Smoke Filter

Document any difficulties your team encountered during the selection process, and describe
how you overcame these hurdles.

As a team we were unable to come to a unanimous decision on which project to pursue, so until one idea shows a clear advantage over the other we will co-process both projects.

Post your team’s answers to the following questions:
• Do the results make sense?
Yes
• Does the team feel comfortable with the results?
Yes
• If you did it again, would it come out differently?
Considering the randomness of the ideation process I am 100% sure that if the process were repeated the results would be different.
• Do you need more information to do it properly?
It would have been more effective to have a specific problem and then use the methods given to brainstorm possible solutions. The method used was much less effective for evaluating ideas which lack a well-defined goal.
