Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reverse brainstorming is a technique where you approach a problem by thinking about how you might create it, rather than trying to solve it directly. This can help generate new and innovative ideas for solving the problem. Vertical thinking involves using logical and analytical thinking to solve a problem, fractionation involves breaking down a problem into smaller parts, and six hats involves looking at a problem from different perspectives. None of these techniques involve creating a problem intentionally.
