Visual Leaders: Seven Essential Tools    

Venture into the world of archetypal frameworks for thinking that provide a key to using metaphors in public speaking. David Sibbet, a pioneer in visual facilitation, will share with us how speakers, trainers, and consultants can take advantage of the worldwide visual revolution. Using charts and tablets, he will demonstrate why mental models, visual facilitation, graphic templates, decision rooms, roadmaps, storymaps, and new media are essential tools for anyone wanting to be a visually literate leader.

The session will begin in a high level overview and then invite our members, through interactive exercises, to understand the choices they have when deciding to work visually.

David is President and founder of The Grove Consultants International(www.grove.com), leaders in visually based services and tools that enable organization, teams and individuals to successfully envision and implement innovation and change. He is author of the best-selling Visual Leadership series including Visual Meetings: How Graphics, Sticky Notes  & Idea Mapping Can Transform Group Productivity, Visual Teams: Graphic Tools for Commitment, Innovation, & High Performance and Visual Leaders: New Tools for Visioning, Management, and Organization Change.

This all-day event includes an optional lunchtime networking meal with chapter members and presenters. Or you can choose to make your own lunch arrangements and eat out.
