Have you ever had a problem you need to solve or a question you needed to answer, but you didn’t know the best way forward?  Even your traditional brainstorming methods weren’t providing the results you needed?  Visual Thinking approaches can be very powerful for getting over those hurdles.  One of the unique approaches, facilitated sessions using photographs, was created by Christine Martell of VisualsSpeak.  Her process uses specially designed and selected photographic images in order to help get the thinking process going for both individuals and small groups.  Christine, a long time fan and supporter of VizThink, and I got to sit down a few weeks ago, not just to talk about her process, but also to experience it live.  During this rare in person video podcast, you’ll see Christine and I answer the question:

What makes a visual thinker?

While the excise is fun, the results are insightful.  In this almost 25 minute video, we discuss the direct answer to the question, plus how the process works.

What do you think makes a visual thinker?  What does the visual thinking industry look like to you?  Leave your comments below or join the discussion in the membership section of our website.  In the members only section, you can also watch an additional bonus video where Christine and I talk about the composition of photos and how small (and large) design choices can make dramatic differences in the outcomes of discussions. 

Do you want to try this process in person?  Be sure to attend VizThink ’09 where you can join Christine in a very exciting breakout session.  Be sure to register now!
