Bad Communication Has a HIGH COST!

The Project Management Institute (PMI) reported that poor communication is the number one reason why projects fail. With poor communication being a contributing factor in 56% of the projects that failed…

❌ Lack of clarity causes misunderstandings and leads to confusion, errors, and rework

❌ Lack of alignment means teams work towards conflicting objectives, wasting time and resources

❌ Information overload causes overwhelm making it difficult for people to prioritise and to process and act on information effectively

❌ Getting lost in details and losing sight of the big picture leads to poor decision-making and ineffective work

❌ Creates conflict through miscommunication or unclear messages that lead to disagreements and interrupt progress

❌ Slower decision-making caused by communication problems halts progress and creates a negative work environment

A study by leadership consultancy Fierce Inc found that 86% of employees cite lack of collaboration or ineffective communications as the main source of workplace failures

A study by Ketchum Communications found that only 31% of people believe their leaders communicate well

VISUAL FACILITATION is the ANTIDOTE!

Visual facilitation is about being able to visualise your work in simple pictures - that anyone (yes - even YOU) can draw and understand

Whether it’s an idea, situation, challenge, objective, stakeholder update or anything else you can think of…

Here’s what happens when you use these SIMPLE visuals:

✅ CLARITY is created - Eliminate confusion and unlock a clear understanding of goals, objectives and expectations. Leading to faster decision-making and increased productivity.

✅ Complex concepts are SIMPLIFIED - Break down complex ideas into simple digestible visuals. Improving collaboration and your ability to tackle challenging problems.

✅ Stress is REDUCED - Mental overload causes stress and kills creative thinking. Having a visual anchor reduces overwhelm and improves focus and attention. Leading to more productive sessions and unique idea generation.

✅ The big picture is SEEN - Create a shared understanding of the parts and how they all fit together. This creates a different perspective. Spot challenges and make connections that you wouldn’t see otherwise.

✅ Communication becomes FAST & CLEAR - A picture is worth a thousand words. Using these simple visuals allows you to make communication simple, clear and fast. Recovering lost time and allowing for smoother work.

McKinsey’s research suggests that employees save an average of 50 minutes daily due to efficient collaboration. This is primarily attributed to streamlined communication. 

In the “ Visual Facilitation: Confusion to Clarity” workshop you will discover:

✅ How to make drawing EASY for anyone by using simple basic shapes - even if you haven’t drawn since you were 2 years old

✅ The visual language - How to draw people, icons and containers, the building blocks for creating visuals

✅ Thought Sketching - The process of taking an idea, problem, concept or anything you can think of and turning it into an effective visual to communicate and gain clarity

✅ Simple Stories - Discover how to create a simple storyboard to get your point across easily. Visualise pain points, present business cases and express ideas quickly.
