On the first day of the workshop we will work on elementary skills in sketching and visualizing that we need to create representative objects and artifacts as well as people and characters.

On the second day of the workshop we build your visual skills in the business setting: We transfer elementary skills to the business environment in order to be able to develop and explain complex concepts with the common language of visualization. We will furthermore take a look at important visual tools in the business setting that can be learned and easily applied in fields such as idea development, new business development, customer creation and marketing, process management, strategic planning, etc.

We will furthermore take a closer look at visualizing storytelling and developing visual metaphors for managing complex business projects.
