Steve loves a good flow chart! In fact, he’s pretty psyched about process mapping, brainstorming and digital whiteboards too!
In this episode, he explains why mapping your ideas visually can increase efficiency and why it’s an essential skill to master to get the most out of your time and energy.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
When you have a multimodal approach to sharing information and learning, you are more likely to reach the highest number of people in the ‘room’ with you.
In addition, use a brainstorming approach to your goal planning. Think of everything that could be a goal. And throw it into a digital whiteboard that is visually accessible to everyone, and it will be easier to prioritise those elements.
The training forum is perfect for a visual representation. It’s also essential to express the complex processes and parts involved in a particular task.
Marketing planning suits visuals particularly well due to its complicated nature. And, in terms of automation, covering all the different eventualities and formats that landing a client can encompass.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I am a very good visual learner, which means that if I picture a diagram, that’s how I learn. That’s true for about 65% of the population.’
“You can do this on a board. I know people that are clients that have teams that work in offices together. They’ll do this on a whiteboard, take post-it notes, and do the same thing.’
“If you can get your team on board, to understand the vision that you have for your company and understand why you ‘park’ certain things and escalate things to a higher priority, and you can get that over to them quickly, then they can get on board and start working towards your vision.’
“Ours is a very simple marketing funnel in the big picture. And it’s still probably about 20 different moving parts and elements to it.’
