Visual Meetings

My review

I must admit that I had no idea what graphic facilitation or graphic recording was before reading this book. Nor I knew there were people who do this for a living!

The idea is good: how to make meetings more memorable, how to learn more from them and how to engage people. Things that are actually lacking in many meetings.

I liked the clear and simple structure of the book. There is, however, maybe to much description on each technique. But that is probably the whole idea – a description of methods for making visual meetings.

My only doubt is: if it's so effective how on earth it's so little used? Are they popular only in USA? Why? My guess is that it requires a complete new mind set. Changing mentalities is always hard.
