Crazy 8's Sharing and Voting

Core Method
Collected by Google

After everyone has finished the Crazy 8’s exercise, it’s time for each team member to share the ideas they have generated and discuss with the group. In order to not get bogged down, give each sprinter roughly 3 minutes to present. If they risk running long, let them know. Keep it moving.
After the entire team has presented their sketches, hold a round of voting. You’re not choosing the idea you’re moving forward with yet. Instead, you’re weeding out any sketches that aren’t feasible and/or won’t help the user.

Directions
- Put up each sprinter’s sketches on a wall or whiteboard one at a time so everyone can see them clearly
- Each person has three minutes to talk through the ideas they generated and answer any questions other teammates may have
- Give each team member three votes
- The team will have five minutes to indicate the three most compelling ideas by voting on the specific sketches (not the entire paper)
- It is ok to vote for your own sketch or to put all three dots on one idea if you think it is truly the most valuable to pursue
