The success of your Leadership Development programme is often dependent on helping leaders see how investing time in their development will help them progress towards their professional and life goals.
Visualising the development journey they need to take to achieve their professional and life goals and ambitions can be extremely helpful for a number of reasons including:
A Personal Vision acts as a leadership development compass…
Visualising a leaders personal vision as an image provides them with a quick reference map as they progress along their leadership development journey. It helps them see the skills they need to develop, the relationships they need to build, the decisions they need to make and the behaviours they need to grow. It acts as the leadership development compass to keep them on course.
The process of creating a Personal Vision is as important as the vision image itself!
The very act of creating their personal vision can also be as educational to your leaders as the end vision image itself. Going through the process can reveal new ideas, things they hadn’t thought about, new pathways to their goals – or even completely new leadership opportunities they hadn’t considered before!
How to integrate Personal Visions into your leadership development programme…
The ideal time to help your leaders to create their personal vision is at the beginning of your leadership development programme – as a compass setting exercise. However, creating a personal vision at any point during the development programme will also be beneficial for the reasons described above.
Feel free to use the questions in the image above as a catalyst to help your leaders create their own vision.

Visual thinking is a term that you may have heard of, but it isn’t always clear what practical business benefit can be derived from using visual thinking approaches in your work.
To help with this confusion, I’ve put together this quick guide to the Visual Thinking Toolkit that describes how each tool can help you in your business and what the high level result of this approach will be. I hope you find it useful.
Having a Vision and successfully achieving it requires three key activities: Communicating, Enabling and Embedding. In these short videos, I share my thoughts on the importance of having a joined-up approach to these key activities and the 3 Steps to successfully achieving your Vision.
A joined-up approach is vital to achieving your Vision!
In this introductory blog episode, I share my thoughts on the importance of having a joined-up approach to these key activities – and what can happen if you don’t!
Step #1: Develop your Vision
In this blog episode, I talk about how visualising your organisations Vision can improve communication, understanding and business performance. This is the all important first step to embedding your Vision!
#2: Develop your People!
In this blog episode, I talk about how aligning the skills, knowledge and behaviours of your people to your Vision is vital in enabling your Vision to be achieved.
Step #3: Develop your Organisation
In this blog episode, I talk about the importance of alining your systems, processes and organisational behaviours with your Vision to deliver a great customer experience and build trust in your organisation.

Crackerjack Visual Thinking was recently asked by David Hall, Eastlight Homes Executive Director for Resources, to create a whiteboard animation to support the finance section of Eastlight’s 2021 Annual General Meeting.
The brief was to create an engaging, informative and fun animation that provided an overview of how Eastlight provides value for money for its customers. David has kindly agreed to let us share the ‘Value for Money Journey’ animation below which takes people “along a road very near you”…
Eastlight Homes AGM 2021 Value for Money Journey Whiteboard Animation
After the event, we asked David how the animation had been received by the AGM audience and his answer was:
“Very well. We presented the animation at the meeting yesterday evening and had some very positive immediate feedback. People liked the different and more informal approach to this subject and we are going to put it onto our website.”
David Hall | Executive Director Resources | Eastlight Homes
This was great to hear and we’re really pleased that the animation will provide on-going value via Eastlight’s website (in addition to the original aim of creating the animation for use at Eastlight’s AGM).
If your business would benefit from telling a story via a Whiteboard Animation, please call +44 (0)115 6483381 or contact us to discuss your requirements in more detail.
