18. Brainstorm Cards
Brainstorm cards are a useful tool created by the
Board of Innovation for coming up with dozens of
new ideas related to whatever challenge or
problem you are currently working with.
Brainstorm cards help you consider external

and regulation in the context of your business.
This approach allows you to generate a great
