Spring 2020 Webinar: Visualizing Complexity: Making a Case for Expressing Yourself Visually
Visualizing Complexity: Making a Case for Expressing Yourself Visually Presented by Enrique Martinez, Center for Leadership Development |  |
|---|
This webinar will ask you questions about your problem-solving process. How do you deal with the complex challenges that you are expected to solve in your team, department or agency? You will learn why diagrams are a must-have skill to cope with the difficult problems we find in these unpredictable times. In government and industry, the value of thinking visually has nothing to do with artistic ability or technique. It is all about communication and clarification. Government innovators like yourself can’t afford not to think visually, at a very basic level, to have a better chance to reach the full depth of problems. If you think you are not good at sketching, let me convince you otherwise. If you are not used to doodling or drawing, this webinar is a must-take for you.
