Visual Translations are graphic captures of conversations, meetings and various types of presentations. More than just taking notes and collecting content, visual translations capture the context and the high-level relevant information lost in simple text.

“It’s like having a photo of the conversation, but with words, images and other related content.”

Visual Translations capture as well as inspire creative thinking and collaboration with individuals, teams and whole organizations. It is a real-time reflection of the thinking process on one end and a thinking guide on the other.

In addition, visual translations for events become keep-sakes and visual reminders of key events and interesting moments shared by presenters, attendees and participants.

The Experience Economy Workshop

Throughout history, the world has seen various economic eras. In the beginning commerce was created by the exchange of materials extracted from the earth. This was the Commodities Economy. It wasn’t until people began customizing and packaging commodities into small stock items called goods that the economic offer progressed. This was the next evolution of economics we now call the Goods Economy.

Once more a shift happened in the economy when these same goods were now being offered as part of services for customers in order to save time, thus the birth of the Services Economy began to grow. As all things evolve, the Services Economy would give way to a new type of economic offer, not one of acquisition of things, rather one of doing things.

Companies like Disney gave birth to the next progression of offerings, the Experience Economy. An economic shift from customers acquiring products with a focus of time well saved to engagements of time well spent. It is this era that is driving dramatic change and creating unprecedented opportunities for growth.

Now you can learn to understand and leverage this shift away from Goods and Services to Experiences.

The format: 1 – 1.5 day session

• Brief presentation on the value of evolving from Goods and Services to Experiences
• Demonstrating how customization of an offering can lead to an Experience
• Exemplars of the Experience Economy 
• Group participation on designing customer engagements
• Team presentation on design and solutions for unique customer experiences
• Discussions on applications and obstacles of implementation

This is a perfect session for small conferences, retreats and pre-conference workshops.
