See this: Graphic recording

So we want to be magazine designers?  What about graphic facilitators!

I saw this story featured on NBC and wanted to share.  People are getting hired to graphically guide company meetings and discussions.   The goal is to help bring conversation and maybe inspire new thinking in the process.

Here are some examples:






The story is on the merit of the technique.  Is it worth is to hire people as professional doodlers?

I say yes.  There are many people, not just us designers, who are visual learners.   Staring at a board with a bunch of text can be intimidating and discourage people.  Breaking down text into graphics is a great way to make information more accessible and will probably bring about more creative ideas.   I would much rather stare at those boards, than a Powerpoint of words.
