Visual thinking and visual explanations are finding their feet in traditional business thinking, slowly yet surely.
Alex Osterwalder is the author @ http://business-model-design.blogspot.com/ and has created this presentation about drawing your business model along with Xplane – the leader’s in Visual Communication. 
The presentation needs to be seen in full screen mode.
It shows how can a business model be drawn and raises a pertinent question as to why should it be drawn?
Look at the slide containing the complete business model. It is one snapshot covering the entire business and try thinking of it words and you’d have your business plan.
1 Slide = The complete Business Model. That’s the power of Visual Thinking.
How do apply it to our lives, apart from just Business, is now long overdue and is a presentation from Ken Watanabe’s book – Problem Solving 101. Hang on people! It is on its way!

This wonderful presentation about Visual and Creative Thinking in Business has been created with a purpose to help people realize that Creativity is important in Business and provide some steps to build creativity that was so ubiquitous during childhood.
A must watch for all those involved in heavy duty work environments.
Doodling isn’t an art to be learnt, but a fun activity that you should absolutely indulge in, just as the kids do. But it changes perspectives immensely and also alters the way you’d think further on.
Visual thinking – A must for everyone and anyone, yet somehow the most neglected of all options.
Hope you enjoy this presentation.
NOTE: Within the coming week, we shall bring to you some perspectives of the book “Problem Solving 101 – Ken Watanabe” to help you make real visual thinking in your everyday living. (Had been reviewed in the last post.)
@Kelsey Ruger Thanks for such enlightening presentations.

Problem Solving 101 by Ken Watanabe just blew me away.
Never before has a book been written that actually SIMPLIFIES problem solving in a manner as this.
It’s been an astounding read and the principles that are taught via stories of children make a deep impact as one realizes how really complicated situations and dilemmas can be handled using extremely simple Pen & Paper based tools.
A must read for any and everyone. Be it a student, a business person, just anyone.
You NEED to read it atleast once.
We @ Pictualize bow down to Ken Watanabe for giving Visual Thinking a new paradigm. And resolve to Pictualize a few essential toolboxes for the benefit of our readers and our clients.
