We have had a lot of great success with visual thinking workshops in New York, Chicago, and Toronto.  Over 1/3 of the participants have flown from all over the world to attend.  However, that’s not possible for everybody.  The weak global economy, corporate travel restrictions, and busy schedules all get in the way.  Well, we have a solution!  We’re bringing a version of the workshops online.
