  • Post-It notes and Visual Thinking

    Many people will have experienced using Post-It notes to structure thoughts and ideas in meetings and training events. However, in many cases the Post-It notes simply have words/phrases on them resulting in them being, in effect, a moveable linear list. Research continues to show that linear lists are not the most effective way of helping your brain understand complex and diverse information.

    Visual Thinking encourages people to share their thoughts using pictures, diagrams, sketches and other visual techniques. This helps people:

    • see concepts more clearly
    • see the relationships between different ideas more easily
    • resolve problems more efficiently

    Crackerjack People Development can help you and your organisation harness the power of Visual Thinking by designing and facilitating visual meetings and events and helping your people develop Visual Thinking skills in your organisation.

  • Systems Thinking x Visual Thinking = Organisational Clarity

    In complex organisations, trying to understand how the various elements of the business fit together and co-exist can be challenging.

    By using a visual thinking approach and working with your people to visually map your business on large wall charts, you are able to see the organisation and understand more easily how your business operates and the critical linkages that enable your business to function effectively.
