Recently we did a innovation workshop for a developer of extensions for the global motor car industry. The task for the employees was to come up with new, innovative business ideas. We trained them in different visual tools to discover, develop and share business ideas and throughout the day 4 new business ideas were born.
Among others they were asked to do a cartoon that illustrates their client interaction and communication today and in the future.
When we ask people to draw someone will always say, that they can´t draw, that they are not visual persons. But after we assure them, that you don’t have to be a expert to visualize something, that it is about making very simple drawings and get the message through, they almost always end up with very insightful pictures. It is a very powerful tool and a lot of fun!
