Eco-systems are absolutely everywhere, and you may even be in the process of communicating your organisation's eco-system, or part of it, to a range of stakeholders, clients and partners right now. So how can you 1) spot an eco-system, and 2) bring it to life visually to enable others to make meaningful sense of it and take action? Tom Russell FRSA offers 8 characteristics of an eco-system and explains what the team at Inky Thinking are doing to help clients make sense of interconnected complexity. Read on at Ink Blot - the Inky Thinking blog. #ecosystem #illustration #complexity

A very warm welcome to Felipe who has recently said yes to the offer of being part of the (rather crazy yet brilliant) team of Inky Thinkers. Felipe joins us with a wealth of commercial illustration experience and is currently working on an eco-system illustration, to enable stakeholders to quickly understand the deep, layered IT complexity behind a simple, global customer portal. Making the leap to join the team seems to have brought Felipe great joy; "You get the opportunity to work on a wide variety of amazing projects whilst being part of an incredibly talented and lovely team always focused on bringing to life meaningful stories for clients." Please join us in welcoming Felipe and if you are curious to read a little more about his background and experience; https://lnkd.in/eCjGtaMA #visual #storytelling #communication #illustration #ecosystem #imagery #richpicture #client #b2b #commercial #creative #team #inkythinking #uk

"What comes to mind when working with the fabulous Tom & Jen from Inky Thinking, is: Collaborative - they make it their mission to really understand what the research will be used for. They listen, ask clarifying questions, validate their assumptions! Providing thought-provoking suggestions on how to capture the insights. Deep research to understand the topic inside-out prior to the engagement with external stakeholders to make us shine. We have done multiple projects with Inky Thinking and all the outcomes have been exceptional! You won't see such targeted visionary boards anywhere else! They are pieces of art! Thank you, Tom & Jen. Looking forward to our next project!"

Yesterday, Catherine Hennessy and I spent a fun and productive afternoon with Ellie Roberts and Suzanne Walter from I Do Marketing Ltd, adding the finishing touches to a new proposition website for Ceen Facilitation and Inky Thinking, and planning next steps for all things social. We're excited to share the details with you all very soon! #facilitation #teamperformance #marketing

Imagine the scene. You are actively listening and contributing to in an-depth leadership conversation over Zoom with colleagues, and part way through an emerging illustration is shared to reveal your key conversation threads. When you invite a partner outside of your organisation to come into your meeting, listen to the conversation and creatively capture the content, they hear fact and communicate the emerging conversations objectively. When your partner is a graphic artist/creative partner they build the imagery, colour and technique with visual wow. Extend the value of the illustration by re-purposing the digital graphic (the whole or in parts) for all post-event content. To find out more about how an Inky Thinker will add value to your next meeting, event or conference, either digitally or with pen and paper, please email Tom via hello@inkythinking.com. It would be our delight to partner with you. www.inkythinking.com #inkythinking #partnership #meeting #conference #event #creative #team #live #illustration #imagery #picture #graphic #graphicrecording #scribing #seethevalue #content #repurpose #artist #illustrator #zoom #digital
