need help, go to someone who knows nothing

OK, so maybe not someone who knows absolutely nothing, but it may be a good time to connect with someone who has a fresh perspective on your problem. I was thinking about getting the best in the company, from multiple disciplines, into a room every so often to just think about problems. I think it would accomplish at least two things:
1) Makes you understand your problem well enough to explain it to someone who doesn’t know your particular field. That is always helpful.
2) They’re not jaded by any presuppositions in thinking about an answer.
Yeah, I’m sure some of the discussions will be eye-rolling fodder, but I think it would be a very interesting way to go about solving some tough market challenges. Oh, if we all only had 30 hours in a day, doing stuff like this would be no problem!
