Answer: Nominal group technique

Explanation:

Nominal group technique (NGT) can be defined as a structured method for a group brainstorming which encourages contributions from everyone and enhances quick agreement on the importance of issues, or solutions.

In nominal group technique, team members begin by writing down ideas, and then select the idea they feel is best. The nominal group technique identifies problems, and generates specific solutions that are needed for decision making.
