What is Visualization ?

The visualization is a really core component of the way that we communicate, whether we're aware of it or not. When we're dealing with very complex problems, we're actually enacting a different kind of problem solving that has to bring in more than just logic. We're actually doing extrapolation. We're doing inductive reasoning. We're thinking about possibilities that we haven't yet seen. So that kind of imaginative work really has to be brought out by exercising and understanding that right side... visualization is actually a way of cultivating that side of our brain work. Visualization is really important. For the process of design because it's actually a way of unlocking a different part of brain Visualization isn't really about drawing, though. It's actually about visual thinking, and we all do it. It's basically anything that takes us beyond just using words or language alone. really important to be able to understand the way that you communicate to people. The primary tools for, for thinking visually are really just mastering some basic elements of imagining people, spaces, situations and actions or movements. It's very easy to create a simple diagram, and most anyone can draw a stick ﬁgure, an arrow, a circle, a square Visualization has a role to play throughout the design process or the development process. Innovation itself has a, has a rich and detailed development process that we have to follow, from beginning with exploration, moving in through pattern ﬁnding. Designers use visualization all the time. It's not just something that has an application in one part of the process. But it has many ways of being useful at different parts of the process. For example, we won't really rely heavily on photography when we're doing our exploration activities. So we're researching, we're trying to understand our users. We're looking at customers, we're looking at new user segments. Photography is a very rich way for us to understand that world. And not just the peo... The advice I would give to business people who were interested in improving their visualization skills would be shortly, just to practice. It's the kind of thing where once you begin to use the skill. And it, it can be a little intimidating at ﬁrst. But I think that people will ﬁnd that once they start getting in the habit of doing that, you quickly see how the rest of the room responds to you when you get up and you start drawing

Challenges & Selection

The ﬁrst tool I used was the tool of Visualization, or Visual Thinking, to achieve a shared understanding of a problem space among a diverse group of stakeholders before attempting to identify and deﬁne possible solutions to the problem. I use this approach often with our customers, who are government agencies working to apply technology innovations to modernize their mission or the delivery of their services to their customer. I have used the technique of using a straw man visualization of a problem domain with a set of questions or prompts for discussion to allow a diverse group of stakeholders to learn from each other in the process of deﬁning the scope, boundaries, key elements, and relationships between elements to consider when identifying pain points and opportunities for improvements or solutions.

Application

By appling Visualization,by drawing and sketching the idea from everyone,we are getting very good results in the ideas and strength of our management is increasing because of the

participation of everyone in the meeting.At ﬁrst it was a little bit diﬃcult but we managed it Since I discovered that the most valuable aspect is the shared insights and learning, next time I would use the visualization activity as a starting point for a series of design thinking activities. Then the revised graphic that incorporates their combined feedback can serve as a reference tool throughout the remainder of their work.
