Learn new skills and tools for collaborating successfully in remote and hybrid environments

With an increasing number of virtual and hybrid meetings in the workplace, as a meeting leader, trainer, or facilitator, you must prepare for a completely new role - both before, during and after the meeting itself. You cannot simply transfer what worked in the physical meeting to remote and hybrid meetings. It takes something else to create effective, remote and hybrid meetings with engaged participants.

What participants say

Michele Seymour
Leadership Development Consultant
Balance Matters - United Kingdom

Thank you for your careful, patient and enthusiastic guidance through each step. The ability to visually design a team programme was great and thought provoking. I learnt how to think creatively and visually about getting teams connected in a more vibrant and effective way as it shortcuts many discussions seeing symbolically what is being discussed. 
Juergen Kleinstuber
Head of Strategic-, and Performance Programs
SAP - 
Germany

In this course I have learned how to design and facilitate inspiring and engaging online meetings and workshops. With the methods and tools presented in "Visual Collaboration" emotions, interaction and creativity is added to online meetings. Participants are able to see the thinking and ideas of each other. I am now using this method for preparing and running workshops and meetings about learning, sales, project set up, idea-creation and process definition.
Dimitra Dimitrakopoulou
Visiting Assistant Professor

What makes this course great is a combination of the facilitator, the content, the visuals, the pacing of the learning, the overall experience! I learnt a new framework of engaging visually with my topic of interest and making remote but also in-person meetings.

Course Learning Space

We use this "Course Room" as visual learning space to support the learning before, during and after the course.

Nancy Duarte

This book gives you the building blocks for meetings, processes or projects. It works as a new language for collaboration. In a world where we need tools and approaches to tackle our complex world this book can help you come up with solutions that work.
Olga Svyrydenko
Business Strategy Lead GlobalTraining Partner Program  Microsoft
In my current role at Microsoft I don’t have the luxury of working with people face to face, so we do a lot of joint visualizations on digital whiteboards while connecting team members from all parts of the world. Visual Collaboration provided an extremely helpful method for clarifying goals, working out joint plans and shared responsibilities, and avoiding cultural or language barriers in our teams
Donato Carparelli
Head Global Product Innovation, Schindler Elevator Ltd
Visual Collaboration is an inspiring guide for anyone who is interested in a more visual approach to organizing and hosting meetings and workshops. The book walks the reader step-by-step from discovering a new visual language to enabling others to work more visually. As a reader one doesn’t only find helpful hands-on tips but also inspirational templates which can be easily customized for any kind of meeting and workshop
