Random distribution is just the beginning. Here are tips to help create truly effective groups.
For most tasks, the ideal size is 3-5 people. Fewer means fewer ideas, more means harder to coordinate.
In educational and work contexts, change team composition every week or month. This develops adaptability skills.
First choose captains randomly, then distribute the rest among teams.
If participants have different skill levels, pre-sort them into categories and generate teams from each.
At trainings and workshops, generate new teams for each task — this expands your network of contacts.
Save formation history to avoid repeated compositions and ensure rotation.
