Sobre
The Nominal Group Technique (NGT) mind map template provides a structured 7-node framework for group brainstorming and decision-making, ensuring equal participation. Designed for facilitators and teams, this template outlines the complete NGT process from defining a problem like 'New Product Line' through to final prioritization. Key stages include 'Individual Idea Generation', where each member writes down their ideas silently, and subsequent group discussion and voting. This Xmind template serves as a reusable cheat sheet for running effective, unbiased group sessions.
