Our Mission
We believe that hand-drawn visualisations can open up people’s hearts and transform your company culture to become more collaborative.
The reason is that visualisations change the way people interact with each other. Every whiteboard drawing is not only a document but also a personal interpretation of the challenge at hand. On this level, people interact on a deeper level while opposite opinions get directed towards the whiteboard and not against each other.
Additional, the visual nature of big drawings makes it easy to access the content and invites people to ask questions. This nurtures 360° feedback and makes co-created innovations in your company more likely.
