I recently attended VizThink ‘09 in San Jose, California, where I learned tons from the best visual thinkers in the world.
One of the workshops I enjoyed most was with Dan Roam, author of The Back of the Napkin, recently named one of the best business books of 2008. Dan is a fascinating guy and his book is simply brilliant. He spoke a lot about his next book, and I am anxious to summarize my notes from that lecture and will post them here. In the meantime, if you believe in the power of visual thinking to solve business challenges, pick up his book. It isn’t an “easy” read, but if you’re fascinated (like I am) with organizing complex information, and then distilling it in ways that help people communicate, you will enjoy the book.
