Had the pleasure of presenting Now, More than Ever, The people Revolution for the Australian Institute of Management with best selling business author Dr Stephen Lundin (Fish, Fish Tales, Cats...) plus Social Researcher and Demographer Mark McCrindle. I took notes!
There are hundreds of things you can do in Visual Note Taking (Cap Mapping) - use of colors, different types of hand writing, playing with size, symbols, techniques... The idea is to capture what is being said and what it sparks in your mind. Things to look for in this page include:
1. The Word Toxicity - Use of Concrete Word: making the word look like what it means
2. The Drawing of Stephen - It doesn't have to be accurate (sorry Stephen!) just enough of the features to help recall his look
3. Borders - Simple circles, rectangles and such can help the information Stand-Out
4. Design- You can read it in chunks or follow it right to left, up to down... could have used a Mind-Map or many other design possibilities
The beauty of Cap Maps is that there is a freedom of choice just as Stephen writes about in his work. Stay tuned for more example pages and 'tips'. Meanwhile, check out our CapMaps DVD at the shop www.glenncapelli.com
