Graphic facilitation catalyzes discussions through the power of visual thinking.

 

The work has many names: scribing, graphic recording,  or visual notetaking. Usually, in this role, we listen and take notes.​ A graphic facilitator can take it one step further, helping design, shape and lead the discussion.

​

It is a powerful tool: we supercharge discussions. Using images, speech and text together engages multiple modes of thinking, fostering engagement, recall and attention.​​​​​​​ ​The result is a more engaged audience and dynamic event. 

 

Once the discussion is over, you have a conversation-starting take-home image for your presentations and internal documents, to print for your physical spaces, or to use in your marketing and social media.

​

​​The work can take many forms. It can be done:

• In-person or remotely

• Live or post-event

• Analog - using markers and board - or digital.

• As pure capture, or as an interactive experience.

 

I recently partnered with very talented colleagues to create Kelpworks Collective, a group dedicated to graphic facilitation. I take most of my graphic recording work through there. Please reach out through here or on that website, and let's talk to figure out how graphic facilitation fits best into your event.
