Collaboration Meets Consensus: Mind mapping embraces the way we are wired.
Fact: 60% of folks are visual learners and visuals are processed by the brain 60,000x faster than text.
Mind mapping embraces the way we are wired to build a shared understanding, improve visioning and memory retention, and shift from topics to priorities. What else? It's fun and engaging!
Mind mapping is a graphic facilitation technique that synthesizes input and generates new ideas. Easy to do both virtually and in-person, the end product is a powerful mural that celebrates the interconnected nature of topics, goals, priorities, and actions.
"Mind mapping allows participants to think in a linear and radial fashion. It stimulates us to use our strong visual memory and to literally see connections we might miss if we just made traditional notes." - Dynamic Learning Inc.
