Description

Course Overview

This is an interactive workshop that bridges the gap between virtual and visual facilitation. While some teams moved to a distributed and remote working environment before the pandemic, we are seeing a significant rise in the number of virtual teams and organizations over the past couple of years. With this, teams may already be facing communication and collaboration challenges, oftentimes exacerbated by distance and lack of accessibility, hindering team culture and progress. Just as with in-person meetings, visuals can play an essential role in supporting teams to a place of alignment, shared understanding, and overall cohesion. In this session we will explore the benefits of using visuals in facilitation, the do’s and don’ts of incorporating visuals in remote facilitation, explore different techniques to increase your visual toolkit, and have a lesson in drawing icons – where you can practice drawing people and icons that are often found in Agile and Scrum environments.
