Nora Herting, will expand on ImageThink’s use of visual problem solving to help you creatively ideate, motivate others, and socialize your ideas with storytelling. Can’t draw a stick man? Not to worry. Attend a talk at the ACC on March 13th by ImageThink’s co-founder and principal and learn how to picture your big ideas.

As humans, we’re hardwired to think in pictures. –more of our neurons are dedicated to vision than our other four senses combined! A fact that explains the popularity of infographics, grumpy cat, and Tinder. All we have to do is look around to see the power of images. The power of visual thinking extends beyond communication, it can help get you to that great idea faster. Thinking about your problem visually is the first step to solving it.

Even if your hand doesn’t have the skills, you have an evolutionary advantage. The human brain is neurologically wired to see meaning in visual cues.
