with Dave Gray & Karl Gude:

Are you a visual thinker?  Do you want to hone your visual thinking skills?  Do you want to learn from some of the best in our industry?  Then the Visualizing Information Workshop is for you!  VizThink is offering a series of one-day workshops all around the United States.  These workshops will help you improve your visual thinking skills.

New dates & locations will be announced soon!

Who are visual thinkers anyway? Visual thinkers are people who use any form of the visual arts such as graphic design, illustration, photos, video, animations, sketches, 3D, etc. for communications and learning. VizThink's goal is to bring together the best of the best in our industry with participation from trainers, marketers, presenters, executives, planners, strategists, and managers, just to name a few. While each approach and application may be different, the community members all share the same philosophy in the power of visualization for learning and communication. We believe that by bringing these diverse groups together, we'll create a community that can take the industry to a new level and invite you to take part.

That's a hard question and we're working on with the community right now. It's definitely a diverse group both in visual approaches (graphic design, illustration, modeling, video, animation, comic, 3D, etc) and in application (brainstorming, facilitation, alignment, communication, learning, organization, research, analysis, etc). Here are a couple attempts. What do you think? What's missing? How should it be depicted? Give us your thoughts on our blog.
