Visual Thinking
I am a visual thinker. For me, a picture is worth a thousand words.
Dan Roam’s book, The Back of The Napkin: Solving Problems and Selling Ideas With Pictures, has been on my Amazon Wish List since it was released earlier this year.
The book jumped up a few notches on my Wish List the other day when I got a chance to see a few of the Visual Thinking tools from the book that Dan made available for download on his blog.
This is good stuff.
Dan explains in his book that there 5 Focusing Questions (or S.Q.V.I.D) to ask when you have something to explain….
1) Simple or Elaborate?
2) Quality or Quantity?
3) Vision or Execution?
4) Individual or Compare?
5) Change or As-Is?
He also presents the <6><6> rule which explains the 6 ways we see things and the 6 ways to show things.
And then brings it all together in the Visual Thinking Codex.
