Visual thinking is a tool for thought, helping us see our own ideas as well as new perspectives. In today’s VUCA (Volatile Uncertain Complex Ambiguous) world, drawing out meaning supports individual, group and organizational understanding. As we draw and visualize together, we are able to tap into our unique creativity and engage others to use theirs. Practice your visual thinking with some of my favourite resources below, to help untangle your own COMPLEX challenges. Seeing new opportunities together and bringing meaningful ideas to life is powerful AND fun - ENJOY!
