KEY LEARNINGS
Visualize ideas
• Establish a culture that is conducive to and acknowledges the courage to draw.
• Create simple and clear drawings. Visualization is not art but a means to an end.
• Systematically replace key concepts or sentences with images, icons, and stick figures.
• Take advantage of the impact of images on our brain: Images leave a deeper impact.
• Solve communication problems on interdisciplinary teams with drawings;
this way, you can overcome language and cultural barriers.
• Use drawings and visualized stories to communicate knowledge in meetings.
• Use simple drawings and graphics.
• Because it’s faster: Sketch something instead of cumbersomely writing it down.
• Visualization is like a language: You have to practice and apply it. Just do it! Now.
