Ready to Learn One of the Most Effective Visual Thinking Tools?
When everything is fuzzy and it’s hard to get a grasp of what’s going on… cross the bridge and map it out, the visual way!
Whether you want to build a strategy, figure out a problem, visualise a customer journey, process, nail a presentation, or do some reflecting, maps are a fantastic way to bring clarity and solve problems.
In this workshop we’ll be walking you through how to create effective maps that you can use, even if you’ve never drawn before!
We’ll be showing you how we use digital whiteboards to create maps, using our visual library that we use to create maps on the fly!
This training is open to people of all levels, no previous visual thinking knowledge is required.
1-day training. Remote workshop with Zoom. Awesome extras you can’t get anywhere else.

Why Use Maps?
Bring Clarity: You get a clear view of what is happening at each stage in a process including the potential stumbling blocks
See the big picture: being able to view everything in one place stops you from getting stuck in the details (without losing the details!)
Amazing for communication: talking and interacting around a map helps everyone to get on the same page
Storytelling: the different stages on a map take you through a journey and you can create multiple maps for each ‘story’
Bring it to life: Maps use visual metaphors, making it easier for you to understand what is going on and to apply it to your real world context
Think differently: Having a whole process or strategy clearly laid out in front of you enables you to think about problems in a different way
Highly engaging: Maps encourage interaction and we would all rather look at nice pictures than a dry spreadsheet!
Use remotely: Digital tools allow you to create maps and collaborate on them with others during workshops, meetings, or individually
