I can't draw and I'm embarrassed by my drawings

Then you won't be alone and quite frankly it's not surprising if you haven't practised since you were 9. You won't be the only one to feel this way. Luckily, visual thinking is not about being a great technical artist (phew). Our courses are all about how you think and communicate with fluency. Part of that is building confidence and a visual toolkit, the rest is your creativity. We create a safe and playful space to overcome any fears you have around drawing.

I think in a visual way, but my some of my team avoid it. Would this work for my team?

It's understandable that some of your team might show some resistance. Perhaps they are afraid of looking silly. Why would they want to change? If you want to introduce a powerful way of thinking and generating then it is helpful for everyone to understand the structure of it, even if not everyone wants to master it.

We are not designers but we want to get better at communicating with each other, would this still work for us?

Absolutely. Visual thinking is particularly good at improving communication. A drawing gives a centre of gravity for a conversation, a chance for someone to say 'yes, like that' or 'not quite, perhaps with more of x [pen moves messily on roll of paper].'

We want to use visuals more but we're worried about our bosses thinking we are not taking our work seriously.

Some may judge you, but in our experience, the bosses love it. They benefit from your clearer grasp and communication of an idea and they often come searching to learn these skills too. The good ones want to learn and are willing to go on the learning path with you.
