Humor and innovative engagement can bring new life, commitment and energy to groups that are losing their steam.
We all remember childhood fun in creating visual representations of thoughts and ideas, as children we were all experts at this way of seeing the world and things around us.
As we grow older we are trained to see things more verbally and, as a result, our vision of situations has become more narrow. Words are limited after all, but by engaging your group in more visual activities through directed (and non-directed) doodling, a whole new perspective can be gained.
The doodlevision games and exercises put fun, creativity and humor into business situations and creates an environment where possibilities that may have previously been unrecognized or unanticipated to come to light.
About the author
For nearly 20 years I have been designing and running workshops, meetings and seminars from Budapest to Belfast. My love of doodling was initially sparked as a means to work with cross cultural and language barriers and to convey complicated concepts in a clear way for non-native English speakers. Through these doodling experiences I realized that that the multi-cultural groups grasped complicated concepts and situations more creatively and more concretely than my standard native English-speaking clients.
Gradually, I realized that greater clarity and creativity can be found in all subjects and with native and non-native English speakers and I began to work with doodling more and more. I now incorporate doodling in all of my work—I doodle in meetings, when designing sessions and even use it as a form of quiet meditation to unwind after a challenging day.
