Looking for the “secret sauce” that makes speaking events exciting, workshops effective and trainings engaging?
Graphic recorders work in real time at speaking events, meetings and workshops, capturing key points with a combination of text and images. By capturing the essence of what's said with imagery and reflecting it back in a simple, clear style, graphic recording and facilitation helps people to understand complexity and to make better decisions. It also:
- Creates a visual map of a conversation
- Connects data with emotion.
- Visually simplifies complex or abstract concepts.
- Aids memory and retention of stories, facts, and connections.
- Guides individuals and groups through a process.
- Adds an element of 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. Graphic facilitation uses more of our brain’s creative capacity during lectures, meetings, conferences, brainstorming, and strategy sessions.
The resulting images make perfect content for social media, blog posts, articles, and videos.
