Did you know questions are the best way to find answers to tough problems? 🖍 Here’s the top part of a sketchnote of an article about the Question Burst, a 4-minute form of brainstorming in which you collectively capture only QUESTIONS, written up as “Better Brainstorming” by Hal Gregersen in the March-April 2018 issue of HBR and summarized on episode 160 of The Creative Sandbox Way™ podcast, just dropped this morning. (Swipe right for the bottom part.) 🖍 (I’ve learned my lesson—no more vertical orientation layouts! Square from here on out! Social media has forever changed design....) . . . . . #sketchnote #sketchnotes #visualnotes #visualcommunication #visualpractice #visualshownotes #creativesandboxway #pigmamicron #originalart #doodleart #stickfigure #stickfigures #brainstorm #brainstorming #questionburst

Working on flip charts for upcoming team building workshops. We’re all about handmade graphics here at Creative Sandbox Solutions, as you can see. It’s that handmade touch that makes people sit up and take notice nowadays. . . . #graphicfacilitation #visualcommunication #visualpractice #simpleguidingprinciples #neulandmarkers #originalart #visualshownotes #flipchart #markerlettering

Working on more “analog PowerPoint” sheets... er... analog slides..? for upcoming LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® values and visioning workshops. Because that’s how we roll at Creative Sandbox Solutions — people zone out to digital slides these days, but we find they really engage with handmade, so we take the extra time and make handmade presentations. 🖍 It’s that extra little step, that actually takes a ton more work on our end, but it’s worth the effort. . . . . #visualnotes #visualthinking #visualcommunication #graphicfacilitation #legoseriousplay #bikablo #flipchart #visualpractice #visualshownotes #originalart #neulandmarkers

New Visual Shownotes™ today, this time from my own podcast—the Creative Sandbox Way™ episode 154, Paul McCarthy Is the British Ninja, with @uclamartialarts. 🖍 Yes, I used Photoshop to add his photo, because hey, I *can*, and I thought it would be cool. 😎 🖍 Let me know what you think! Have a listen to the podcast at http://creativesandboxway.com/154, and let me know if you like these visual highlights. 😊 🖍 . . . #visualpractice #visualshownotes #visualcommunication #visualnotes #newskill #newskills #learning #sketchnote #sketchnotes #sketchnoting #graphicrecording #graphicrecorder #infodoodle #creativesandbox #creativesandboxway #doodle #doodles #doodleart #doodleartist #doodlesofinstagram #dailydoodle2018 #dailydoodle #dailycreative #originalart #neuland #neulandmarkers

More Visual Shownotes™ from the Jordan Harbinger Show, with @jordanharbinger and Tali Sharot on the Science of the Influential Mind. I love practicing visual notes to Jordan’s podcast because he A) Gets such fascinating guests; B) Does a great job interviewing them; and C) Has terrific show notes that I can crib for my Visual Notes™! 😅 No joke—learning a new skill is hard! I’m juggling multiple skills here, each of which needs a lot of work: 🖍 - lettering (not just well, but also quickly! Gahhh!) - drawing (again, not just drawing, but also quickly! Gahhh!) - capturing IDEAS quickly, and translating them into visual metaphors - listening, listening, listening, and holding onto content that is rolling by while I’m trying to capture content that *just* rolled by 🖍 It’s what I imagine juggling 5 balls at a time must be like. (And since I can’t even juggle ONE ball, well, you get the idea!) 🖍 I’m not aiming to become a professional graphic recorder. My goal is to bring more visuals into my workshops and trainings. So I’m not “cheating” by using podcasts to practice with. In fact, I see it as a great double-win: I get to practice, AND I get to listen to podcasts I enjoy while I’m at it. 😊 🖍 What podcasts do YOU especially enjoy and recommend? 🖍 #visualshownotes #visualpractice #visualcommunication #visualnotes #newskill #newskills #learning #sketchnote #sketchnotes #sketchnoting #graphicrecording #graphicrecorder #infodoodle #creativesandbox #creativesandboxway #doodle #doodles #doodleart #doodleartist #doodlesofinstagram #dailydoodle2018 #dailydoodle #dailycreative #originalart #neuland #neulandmarkers
