Graphic recorders capture the key points at speaking events, conferences and meetings, with colorful sketchnotes created in real time, as the event happens.
Graphic recording is the “secret sauce” for more exciting and memorable events. By creatively capturing the essence of what's said, graphic recording makes complex ideas easier to understand, fosters collaboration, and leads to more effective decision making.
- Creates a visual map of a conversation.
- Connects data with emotion.
- Simplifies complex or abstract concepts.
- Aids memory and retention.
- Guides individuals and groups through a process.
- Adds wonder and delight.
Graphic recording engages the WHOLE brain.
Research suggests that up to 60% of our brains are hard-wired to learn visually and 83% of people describe themselves as visual learners. That means graphic recording helps us use more of our brain’s creative capacity during lectures, meetings, conferences, brainstorming, and strategy sessions.
Graphic recording is effective for:
- Planning & Visioning
- Leadership Retreats
- Planning Meetings
- Conflict Management Sessions
- Large Group Conferences and Summits
- Keynote Addresses and Special Presentations
- Workshops, Focus Groups and Brainstorming Sessions
- Individual Coaching Retreats & Tele-Sessions
Graphic recording keeps adding value long after your event is over.
The value of graphic recording extends well beyond the event space. Post the day's graphic recordings on your organization's social media, and watch the comments and likes roll in. Send the finished graphic recording images to your attendees to reinforce takeaways, and make those who weren't there wish they were. Want to give out some special swag? Print your graphic recordings on mugs, placemats, or anything else you think your participants would love!
