Judy and George were stuck figuring out how to organize an important corporate function taking place the following Sunday. Their notes were scattered across the desk and the room was in a state of disorganization until George suggested they use the morphological matrix to work out their problems. He asked Judy for her list of ideas on how they could stagger the arrivals, organize the food and set up the schedule for the meeting and the speeches. Judy provided her ideas and George gave his own and they placed them all in a table format. George was relieved that they could contain their thoughts, use critical judgment and create a solution based on the table.
