The Power in Your Hands

Visual thinking keynote by Brandy Agerbeck

Before we can make change, we need a shared vision.

To craft a strong solution, we need to see the problem clearly from all angles.

Our lasting, shared vision needs to be mapped out together.

Visual thinking is the tool that brings creativity, critical thinking, and clarity to your fingertips.

Brandy Agerbeck has demystified visual thinking by breaking it down into oh-so-learnable pieces she calls "idea shapers."

The whole set can be found in her groundbreaking 2016 book, The Idea Shapers: The power of putting your thinking into your own hands.

The Power in Your Hands is the key that unlocks your team's ability to:

Reduce overwhelm

Map complex systems

Untangle difficult processes

Make new connections between ideas, leading to new insights

See the Big Picture of your work clearly

Your participants — no matter their background or drawing ability — can learn 4 hands-on pointers in an hour.
