  • Visual Thinking saves a business many £100k’s!!!

    Visual Thinking saves a business many £100k’s!!!

    Visual Thinking saves a business many £100k’s!!!

    Those of you who read my posts or have worked with me know that I’m a firm believer in driving real tangible business benefits from the visual thinking approaches I use. I see visual thinking as a ‘need to have’ rather than a ‘nice to have’. I was therefore extremely pleased to receive the following feedback about the real tangible business benefits that a series of whiteboard animations I’d created for a large aerospace organisation achieved:

    “You saved us many £100k’s with your visual thinking work on Aircraft Assembly Build. You turned what would have been 1000’s of pages of specifications in 6 languages into a series of simple animations.​”
    Mark S
    Supplier Quality Specialist | Aerospace Industry

    Results like these reinforce my belief that visual thinking approaches create real tangible financial benefits for organisations in addition to the well known engagement and communication benefits of helping people see the big picture.

    Course overview

    The ‘Visual Thinking Skills for Coaching’ training course is designed to help you develop your drawing and listening skills, enabling you to capture your coaching clients thinking in the form of sketches, diagrams and pictures. 

    The images you learn to create will help you explore ideas, capture moments of realisation and help your coaching clients SEE their past, present and future visually.




    Research has shown that when people are able to see their big ideas, they increase their chances of achieving them by
    42%

    This course is ideal for anyone involved in coaching – whether running your own coaching practice or providing coaching within an organisation.

    Don’t worry if you think you can’t draw! Everyone has the ability to create meaningful images – this isn’t about being the next Leonardo Da Vinci! Helping you create simple drawings that convey meaning and drive discussion is the aim of this course.

    John’s visual skills coaching is not only extremely valuable but also hugely enjoyable. My session had been carefully planned to build on my abilities and with a clear direction of the goals I had said I wanted to achieve. Having this attention from someone so experienced enabled me to move through my learning quickly and find answers to my many questions. A very inspiring day!

    Rich Picture Explainer 1_5

    Following my recent post about how rich pictures can create a shared understanding of a business (as shown in the example above), I was very pleased to receive the following unsolicited feedback about Crackerjack’s rich picture work from Dassault Systemes (a client I’ve been working with over the last couple of years on various projects):

    A fantastic visual representation of our clients journey to value realisation and transformation.
    Jonny Keighey
    Jonny KeigheyUK & Ireland Sales Director
    These rich pictures have become a foundation piece in our account based marketing programs. Not only do they look cool but they are a great way to tell your story in an engaging way. Working with John is always a pleasure too!

    Rich pictures are ideal for taking complex subjects and visualising them in an accessible and engaging way, helping create a shared understanding across a businesses people, partners and customers.

    I look forward to continuing to work with Kirsty, Jonny and other clients at Dassault Systemes on future projects.

    How rich pictures create a SHARED UNDERSTANDING of your business

    Creating a shared understanding of your business across your people, partners and customers creates opportunities for discussion, cooperation and new ideas that will benefit everyone

    Rich Picture Shared Business Understanding

    The benefit of using a rich picture to create a shared understanding…

    The example image above shows how a single rich picture image can create a shared understanding of your business for your people, partners and customers.

    The example image visualises the following elements to help achieve this understanding:

    • Current business issues.
    • How effective Knowledge Management will resolve these issues.
    • How data will flow around the business.
    • How suppliers will be linked in with the new knowledge management process and data flow.
    • The benefits of the Knowledge Management process for customers.

    This shared understanding of your business results in:

    • Your people understanding how their role fits into the business helps drive it forward.
    • Your partners understand how they link with your business and can support it effectively.
    • Your customers understand your business and the benefits to them of working with you.

    This shared understanding of your business across these key groups of people creates opportunities for discussion, cooperation and new ideas that will benefit everyone.

    Why rich pictures work so well for creating a shared understanding…

    Having a single visual overview of the various elements of your business allows people to see connections and linkages that may otherwise not be apparent. This builds on the brains ability to process visual data extremely effectively and creatively (which is based on the way the brain itself connects information via its neural pathways).

    In addition, the visual impact and engagement a rich picture creates encourages people to want to look at the picture and understand the key messages it’s trying to communicate.

    Hybrid World Vision

    Hybrid working is now the norm for many people…

    In a world where HYBRID WORKING is now normal for many people, it’s even more important that they UNDERSTAND and are ENGAGED with your BUSINESS VISION.

    As well as helping people see the purpose of the business, how it operates and and learning about its values, the vision can also help with a vital business process – DECISION MAKING.

    Aligning decsion making with your vision…

    By its nature, hybrid working also requires people to make MORE DECISIONS AUTONOMOUSLY, and therefore ensuring these are ALIGNED with the business vision is vital.

    Providing a RICH PICTURE of your vision and making it available both ON-LINE and visible in your OFFICE WORKSPACES ensures that your people – wherever they are working – can always refer to the vision to help ALIGN THEIR DECISIONS WITH YOUR VISION.
