Here is my contribution:

PROBLEM: Failure of Company ABC's suggestion box program:

PARADOX: Controlled freedom

ANALOGY: A country where excessive government control stifles free
enterprise.

POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
a) Self regulation by the contributors. E.g. People
take ownership for implementation of their own suggestions.
b) Company provides resource support structure.

Barry.. This is fun.. the technique is a neat way of helping 'out of the
box' thinking... Bryan
