Session Title: Building Visual Thinking Communities

Date: Tuesday, January 29, 2008
Time: 1:30pm - 3:00pm
Room: Cornell

Description

There are more visual thinkers out there then most realize - the challenge is very few actually have a job title or role that speaks to their inner visual thinker. In this session we’ll discuss how to bring the VizThink spirit home with you and introduce it internally to your business or out to your broader community and help identify and foster a visual thinking community.

Using his experiences from building and running the Toronto series of regional VizThink events Ryan Coleman will share is insights on building a community of visual thinkers. Through a blend of presentation and interactive discussion we’ll cover format suggestions, what’s worked (& what hasn’t), as well as organization and promotion tools.   We’ll also work to define what it is participants are looking for from a VizThink community and connect attendees with other VizThinkers from their region or neighboring areas in hopes of kick-starting a few new regional VizThink communities.
