Q: What is Alphachimp Studio? What do you do?
A: Essentially, we use the tools and techniques of the design process in order to help groups better understand complex systems and to make solid strategic decisions. We work with facilitators and groups to get the most out of collaborative sessions and workshops.Our methodology emphasizes the need for real-time documentation, usually delivered via the web, so that the ideas and decisions generated during the sessions can be put to work ASAP!
Q: How can we use "visual learning" to facilitate groups?
A: Through the use of graphic facilitation. As groups of people gather to discuss complex problems and to come up with valuable strategic solutions, we help guide those conversations through creating visual models. By synthesizing all the great ideas into visual models–usually drawn on large format whitewalls or paper–we help make the invisible aspects more concrete and easier to understand. These models form an effective common language within the group, and serve as a powerful mnemonic to refresh memories long after the session is over.These drawings can then be used to create a high-quality information graphic to use for internal or external communication or marketing.
