I’ve been having some great conversations with clients and my network of professional colleagues these past several days about the challenges, and advantages, of working virtually. While I miss working with people in a room face-to-face too, I do believe we can bring a richness of connection and engagement to our virtual conversations too. The trick is you can’t just cut-and-paste your old meeting agenda and strategies onto our virtual meeting places…

Are you losing track of time? Do you wake up confused about whether it’s a weekday or a weekend? I’ve had several conversations in the past week or so and a lot of folks are finding it hard to keep a sense of time, after several weeks of this pandemic-restructured lifestyle we’ve been living.

At the 2019 International Forum of Visual Practitioners annual conference, I was so fortunate to be in the company of 180 other graphic facilitators from 25 countries. We came from different cultures, different languages, and different experiences, but we all shared a common burning desire to use visual tools to spark great understanding, creativity and be a force for good when it comes to understanding and solving complex problems.
