Nominal Group

What's Nominal Group?

A Flutter project that implements the "Nominal Group" technique. This technique is used for various situations when working with teams during discussions, brainstorming, and ideation processes.

When to use the Nominal Group Technique?

• Some group members are much more vocal than others
• Some group members think better in silence
• There is concern about some members not participating
• The group does not easily generate quantities of ideas
• Some or all group members are new to the team
• The issue is controversial or there is a heated conflict between team members

Nominal Group Steps

1. Stating the problem/discussion topic
2. Each team member thinks about solutions/ideas/etc
3. Each one adds his solution/idea to a piece of paper
4. The organizer takes all papers and opens the discussion for each one as follows
   1. Each one tells his opinion/comment one by one without any interruptions
5. After all team members have finished, each one of the team sets a score for each idea/votes for each idea with yes or no
6. Then the organizer takes the results and tells the solution with the highest score
