Description
Visual Practice Workshop
How can visuals help people understand another point of view, improve interactions, ease conversations, and shift the dynamics in a room?
These are some of the key questions we ask ourselves as graphic facilitators, and that guide our contributions towards creating a more equitable society and just world for all.
This workshop is intended for graphic facilitators and people interested in the power of visuals to facilitate systems-level change. Over the three days, the focus will be on experiential, hands-on learning, combining theory, exercises, reflection, and peer learning to explore the following:
-
An exploration into visuals as a key for societal seeing
-
A model of practice that grounds inner cultivation
-
Ways to locate and relax into our most authentic selves
-
Levels of listening, based on the work of Otto Scharmer
-
Systems thinking, including work with suspension and structural dynamics
-
Methods of discernment, based on dialogic facilitation
-
Generative scribing – what it means to draw from, and for, an emerging future reality
-
Mapping next steps for projects and/or professional development
Participation
Drawing will be a primary form of practice. It is not required that participants be skilled scribes – but be prepared to use this expression as the main means of application over the course of the program.
