Visual Thinking for Effective Collaboration- Visualise Ideas and Strengthen Team Alignment

Visual Thinking for Effective Collaboration brings together over 20 years of proven tools and techniques to help you communicate ideas clearly, align teams faster, and make better decisions.

This highly interactive four-hour Scrum Alliance Microcredential equips you with practical visual skills that go beyond traditional note-taking. You’ll learn how to make the invisible visible, turning conversations into shared understanding and helping teams navigate complexity with clarity and confidence.

This course builds your visual literacy by breaking the myth that visual thinking requires artistic talent. Instead, you’ll discover simple, practical techniques you can immediately use to support collaboration, facilitate discussions, and turn ideas into impact.
