We will be experimenting with scale, inclusiveness, and delivery modes: We will use Zoom for the content broadcast and collective sense-making, and a dedicated Mighty Networks online community platform to complement the modules. And of course nothing can hold local groups back from gathering in person as they wish!<\/p>\n
These modules, in essence, aim to:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Awaken the intelligences<\/strong>\u00a0of the open mind, open heart, and open will<\/li>\n
- Deepen your practice<\/strong>\u00a0of a visual sense-making discipline<\/li>\n
- Cultivate your knowledge\u00a0<\/strong>of social technologies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
At a practical level, they will offer a way to:<\/p>\n
\n- \n
- Receive key content<\/strong>\u00a0in a time convenient to your location<\/li>\n
- Practice<\/strong> in a local, place-based way, or with a dedicated virtual group<\/li>\n
- Reflect as a community<\/strong>\u00a0in cross-regional groups and as a whole<\/li>\n
- Be organized and supported<\/strong> by a multi-functional, globally distributed team<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\nCONTENT<\/h3>\n
The intent is to offer six unique sessions, that you can experience individually or combine as you would like:<\/span><\/h3>\n
- \n
- Module 1: The Basics (Saturday, March 21)
<\/strong>This module will cover the basics of the practice, from the use of markers, to lettering, to drawing simple icons, and to framing a page. It will also cover a model we use for discerning what content to include, and what to leave out, when scribing.<\/li>\n- Module 2: Levels of Scribing (Sunday, March 22)
<\/strong>Learn about the \u201cart of scribing\u201d\u2014a practice that visually represents ideas while people talk\u2014and its role in transforming conversation and decision-making. Participants\u00a0will explore the profession through Kelvy Bird’s “4 Levels of Scribing” and “Model of Practice”, scribe a conversation, and consider how to apply these ideas professionally.<\/li>\n- Module 3: Dynamics of Listening (Monday, March 23)
<\/strong>This session will include a review of “Levels of Listening” (Otto Scharmer) and “Conversational Dynamics” (David Kantor), and apply these frameworks directly into visual expression.\u00a0Participants will practice conversing and drawing with different levels\u2014factual, relational, and generative\u2014to expand their awareness around ways of receiving and representing information.<\/li>\n- Module 4: Systems Scribing (Tuesday, March 24)
<\/strong>Here we will share a new methodology that weaves systems thinking with realtime visual practice, to represent dynamics that occur in the moment and over time, between a scribe and a social body. This discipline develops a critical skill to facilitate a system\u2019s ability to see and sense itself, as well as crystalize ideas into action. Expect to diagnose, make connections, and model while you draw.<\/li>\n- Module 5: Generative Scribing (Wednesday, March 25)
<\/strong>In this module, participants will have an opportunity to sense into, and become in tune with, a social field – and draw from that place. We will attend to energy and essence, while learning to represent emerging future possibilities from\u00a0a deeper kind of knowing.\u00a0“Visual Presencing” will also be presented as an approach.<\/li>\n- Module 6: Advanced Practice (Thursday, March 26)
<\/strong>If you have already participated in some of the Visual Practice Workshops (and these online modules) and are wondering what’s next, this module is specifically for you. We will share our latest thinking, pool our collective knowledge and resource, and venture to the edges of our practice to explore what is next individually and as a community of concerned global citizens and scribes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\u00a0<\/h3>\n
Who should participate?<\/h3>\n
- \n
- Anyone wanting to learn<\/strong>\u00a0about scribing<\/li>\n
- Scribes<\/strong>\u00a0who want to bring systems thinking and Presencing into their practice<\/li>\n
- Theory U practitioners<\/strong>\u00a0wanting to learn visual expression<\/li>\n
- Visual thinkers<\/strong>\u00a0seeking to expand their capacity<\/li>\n
- Advanced practitioners<\/strong>\u00a0who are seeking their next professional steps<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Drawing will be our primary form of practice. You do not have to be a skilled scribe or artist \u2013 but be prepared to use visual expression\u00a0as the main method of practice during the modules.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
LOGISTICS<\/h3>\n
The structure is oriented around GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). Please use this link to figure out conversions<\/a>.\u00a0You can see the entire Program in one view here<\/a>.\u00a0The timing for each module is as follows:<\/p>\n

This workshop is intended for graphic facilitators and people interested in the power of visuals to facilitate systems-level change. Over the three days, the focus will be on experiential, hands-on learning, combining theory, exercises, reflection, and peer learning.<\/p>
Join a growing eco-system of practitioners who use the \"art of scribing\" to bridge the ecological, social, and spiritual divides we experience in our world today.\u00a0Scribing - a process of drawing while people talk - provides a mirror that can help a\u00a0system see itself in new light.\u00a0With intention to build navigational capacity for the rapidly changing times in which we we live, this program will focus on:<\/p>
- Activating\u00a0intelligences<\/strong>\u00a0of the Open Mind, Heart, and Will<\/li>
- Deepening practice<\/strong>\u00a0of a visual sense-making discipline<\/li>
- Cultivating knowledge\u00a0<\/strong>of social technologies<\/li><\/ul>
What will you learn?<\/h4>
We will cover aspects of Theory U and Presencing, System and Conversational diagnostics, Four Levels of Listening, Generative Scribing, Discernment for \u2018Letting Go and Letting Come\u2019, 2D Modeling,\u00a0Project Planning, and shared Applications of this work in a variety of contexts.\u00a0The learning process will involve presentations, hands-on practice, peer-to-peer reflections, and large group conversations.<\/p>
Who should participate?<\/h4>
