In this three part series, we look at innovative ways to use custom sticky notes in your small business. In our first post, we looked at how custom sticky notes can motivate employees. In this second part of our series we look at team building and strong ideas.

notepadsMost of us have participated in a brainstorming session. It’s often kicked off with a current hot topic, a few ideas get thrown on the table, more ideas follow and it ends with the big question of what comes next. Occasionally this helps solve the problem at hand but all too often these well-planned sessions have little lasting impact.

Although brainstorming sessions are an important part of the creative process, it’s usually an entire host of factors leading up to the session that dictates how successful it will be. A culture that supports open communication, strong feedback loops, and has a high level of trust uses these traits as a foundation to push big ideas into the world and harness the diverse perspectives in the organization. It helps to establish a common visual language for everyone to communicate and allows people to work through problems together.

Custom sticky notes play a major role in helping teams create both relationships and solutions. Having branded custom sticky notes gives everyone a voice in the room. Whether you’re an introvert or extrovert, they give all team members a visual platform to build on and discuss.

When you see a wall of sticky notes, there’s an emotional resonance to it. People are surrounded by the collective output—whether it’s a set of solutions or a customer’s emotional story, you can’t help but react. Other products simply can’t do that.
