The anti-loop method
Momentum in three moves.
Designed for the moment when more discussion stops producing more clarity.
Name the stuck point
Is the team unclear, over-polishing, avoiding risk, or unable to choose? Precision beats another open brainstorm.
Change one condition
Add a constraint, shift perspective, or replace opinion with a tiny test. One intervention is enough.
End with evidence
Write down the next observable action, its owner, and the signal that would change your mind.

Why silent scoring works better than instant debate
The first opinion spoken often becomes the room's anchor. Silent scoring gives every person a clean first signal, then turns differences into the agenda. Discuss gaps of two points or more; ignore the easy agreement.
