Get the picture - a taster in visual facilitation - webinar

​Free webinar - Thursday 15 October, 12:00-12:45

​You've explained it twice in the meeting. People nodded. A week later, three of them remember it differently.

​Most of us can explain something in words. Fewer can do it in a way that stays with people. Beka is a live illustrator who spends her working days drawing conversations as they happen. In this webinar she shows what that looks like in practice, why it works (there's research behind it, not just nice pictures), and walks you through a short exercise you do with your own pen and paper.

​You don't need to be able to draw. That's rather the point.

​What you'll take away

• ​A clear picture of what visual facilitation is, and what a live illustrator actually does in a room

• ​Why drawing next to words helps people understand and remember - the short version of dual-coding theory

• ​One small tool you try during the session and can use in your next meeting

• ​A look inside a full-day course on 27 November, so you can decide if it's for you

​45 minutes, online. Have a pen and a few sheets of paper ready.

​Who it's for Project leads, managers and anyone who regularly runs meetings, presents information or has to make something complex understandable. Not a drawing class, and no design background needed.

​Who's hosting Beka is a live illustrator and founder of Conversations Captured, based in Yorkshire, UK. She has worked with visual communication and graphic facilitation for universities, banks, councils and organisations across the UK, and is bringing her course to Sweden for the first time this autumn, together with Kvadrat Kompetens. Her approach is practical: you don't need to be an artist to communicate visually.
