What are some of your favorite techniques or resources for creating effective visualizations in your work, and how do you use them to communicate complex ideas or data to others? I'm really interested in hearing everyone's thoughts on their favorite visualization techniques and resources. Personally, I'm a big fan of Bikablo techniques, which use a combination of simple drawings and text to create engaging and memorable visualizations.

I have received a request for an Agile workshop and would like to pick up your collective intelligence on this. The workshop should focus on the topics of Antifragile/Agile/Resilience in a Complex World and should last for 45-60 minutes, accommodating up to 40 participants. We are open to any interesting workshop ideas or exercises that would be relevant to the topic. We believe that the outcome of this discussion will not only be helpful for us but for everyone involved, as this topic seems to be of great interest to many organizations.

I am trying to create a free short workshop that can help me sell a bigger workshop or more workshops to many clients. Have anyone used such an approach. If yes would you do the first one for free and use as a lead generation tool for future ones?

Let's accept it - workshops not always go as planned, and we are always dealing with 'oh-no' situations (at least me!) So I thought to share and also learn from everyone's failures but with the mindset of 'failing forward' - every mistake can turn into a stepping stone for success in the future. I'll start with one learning from this week, and I'd love to hear your lessons learnt too! [plan] In an online workshop where participants from various countries were expected, I did an ice-breaking exercise where I shared a screen of a white world map and asked colleagues to put a stamp on where they are at the moment. [what happened] it took forever for some participants to find out how to stamp and annotate on zoom, while some got it immediately. So it wasn't smooth. Lots of scribbles on the white board too. And, actually majority of them were from the same countries so the activity didn't really serve the purpose of showing the diversity of participants. It fell flat and made it a not-so-cool start of the workshop. [lessons] - keep the technology super simple, especially if you aren't sure of the level of familiarity - have some back-up questions/activities, in case one question didn't spark interest,
