How can enhancing your visual thinking skills help you to refine your craft as a designer and facilitator of systemic change? How can you apply creative methods and tools to individual change work and/or group processes? How can helping individuals and groups to see their ideas, thoughts and dialogue in pictures greatly influence the dynamics at play?
No prior experience necessary! Art skills are useful, but not necessary. You will need to bring a willingness to listen deeply and a desire to think systemically; at the core of it all lies a hunger for play and creative engagement.
