PARTICIPANT SATISFACTION 16 Satisfaction with group productivity Satisfaction with work processes No fear or worry when sharing ideas No fear or worry of criticism
FACILITATOR COMMENTS 17 Engaged participants Saw ‘aha’ Challenging to keep them on task moments Rich and ready Team building Venting session data
SUMMARY 18 Socially and cognitively stimulating Respectful Study limitations -- Lack of comparison
NEXT STEPS 19 Trial in diverse Create settings training Publish video findings and Train protocol Transition Brainwriting Nurses to Premortem facilitate sessions
