Affinity Diagram Introduction

What is the Affinity Diagram?

An affinity diagram, also known as a K-J diagram, is a tool used in project management and business brainstorming sessions to organize a large number of ideas, opinions, or data points into naturally related groups. This method encourages a comprehensive view of complex issues or problems by sorting disparate ideas into themes or categories. It’s particularly useful when analyzing qualitative data, like survey responses or open-ended questions.
