A free-flowing session in which ideas for solutions are generated by both parties. Ideas should not be evaluated during the brainstorming session, and parties should not take ownership of ideas. The goal of a brainstorming session is to liberate those at the table to suggest ideas. (Robert H. Mnookin, Scott R. Peppet and Andrew S. Tulumello, Beyond Winning [Belknap Press, 2004], 37-38)
