focus area - Project of How
My advice is to use this method after you have created a creative brief from your debrief, in order to know what your focus are.
How to run it
- Start with an area of focus, e.g. Digital Media in the middle.
- Fill the center with your focus of choice.
- Create ideas around each individual subject. For instance - Social media.
- Choose the best areas of focus and create 8 new focus fields around this subject. The focus can become new ideas.
- Repeat the step until all areas are covered.

Origin unverified
- Where we observed it: The strongest current observations come from Project of How; aggregators are listed as additional observations, not origin proof. (1 source observed, including Project of How.)
- What that means: we track where an exercise has been observed in public sources. We do not claim to know who created it, or how popular it is.
- No efficacy claims: appearing in this library is not a claim that the exercise is proven effective. Facilitator judgment and context decide whether it works for a given room.
- Corrections: if you have evidence of an earlier or more accurate source, read our methodology and trust boundary and tell us.
