Graphics Facilitation
Sean Griffin has leveraged his breakthrough visualization methods for facilitating meetings and innovative processes based on the theories of “visual thinking” into what he calls Process Art. Sean is a creativity leader who has stretched his artistic talents into a successful consulting & entrepreneurial career. He combines left-brain and right-brain thinking in ways that are insightful, strategic, group-oriented – and, at the same time solution-driven.
Visual thinking tools, interactive sessions, and effective information design allows Sean to guide the discovery, design, and implementation of strategic initiatives that influence organizational culture. His approach is rooted in visualization. Incorporating graphic facilitation, together, you’ll develop large-scale, interactive visual experiences. These graphics are hand-drawn in real-time using words and images to facilitate and support a balance of left- and right-brain thinking. The result is the ability to unlock innovation, increase collaboration, enhance problem-solving, and inspire collective action that delivers mission-critical strategies.
Graphic Facilitation is a Powerful Tool For
Brainstorming
An open environment and creative process for uninhibited idea generation and expansion. Real-time visual recording allows participants to build on each other’s concepts creating a “group mind” and engaging participants on a more meaningful level. This results in more valuable ideas and concepts being developed in a shorter period of time.
Business Models
Developing a winning business model in today’s economy is more challenging than ever. Not only does it require creativity, capital, and diverse competencies to be successful, it also requires ruthless execution. New companies have to develop business models just to come to being and existing companies need to know when and how to modify their current business models to become even more agile and competitive.
Focus Groups
Getting people to share their inner most thoughts and emotions is never easy and rarely achieved. By applying Process Art in a focus group environment people feel heard and are validated as their ideas are tuned into art in front of their eyes. Resulting in a sense of greater freedom for people to share a little of themselves, this creates an environment where nuggets of meaningful insight are harvested.
Memory Maps
Whether through executive coaching, personal coaching, or life coaching, the ability to visualize your path is critical to reaching your goals and uncovering the deeper meaning of life.
I want to help you to graphically visualize where you have been, where you are today, and where you want to go. This process is designed to support you to look inward and uncover your passions, strengths, dreams, desires, resources and the actions needed to reach a new level of personal performance and effectiveness.
Presentations
You can close more sales, raise more money, or enroll more people into your vision with dynamic Process Art Murals.
Nothing is more important to your business success than your ability to present ideas and communicate them in a way that motivates people to action. You have a great story that you are passionate about, and now you want to find a powerful method to communicate it, one that is fast, effective and efficient.
Strategic Planning
Process Art focuses a group’s visions, critical business issues, strategies and systems on the elements necessary to achieve a desired results. Real-time, high-speed illustrations guide a group, image by image, on a journey through their strategic planning process using stories, icons, metaphors, imagination and colors.

Creativity
Increases the ability to manifest ideas within any group environment. Visually develops a relationship with the subconscious that allows thoughts and intuitions to flow freely. Process Art builds connections within the mind through mnemonics and imagery, eliciting the responses necessary to access the brains deep reservoirs of meaning.
Group Engagement
Process Art unifies all participants within group communication environments by validating their input with words and images drawn. Automatically creates emerging collective intelligence. Builds spirit and supports focusing all the participants of a meeting on the goals and objectives of the group.
Efficiency/Productivity
The information discussed within a Process Art facilitated environment is more clearly understood, maximizing time and efficiency. Enables you to collect complex data in a visually integrated form on a single sheet of butcher paper in real-time. Increases the ability to see synergistic connections, increasing the opportunity to make informed decisions.
Exciting/Fun
Real-time animated graphic facilitation is a performance in action. As spontaneous illustrations take place in front of the group, the participant’s physical, mental, and emotional stimulation is at dramatically higher levels. Traditional brainstorming session, conference, strategy session, focus group, board meeting, or training program becomes colorful, expressive, meaningful and dynamic.
Memory Retention
Harvard studies show that simultaneous visuals increase participation and information comprehension upwards of 200%.
Visual Documentation
Process Art creates a real-time visual document or what I also like to call a “Modern Day Wall Painting.” Clients receive an accurate and aesthetic recording of all the information harvested during programs that can be referred to at any time thereafter.
