Visual Workplace Radio: Let The Workplace Speak

If you don’t diagnose your site correctly, how can you expect to improve it? Last week your host and visual expert, Gwendolyn Galsworth, mapped out how to learn to see differently—both what is there and what is not. This week, Gwendolyn will use her Ten-Doorway Model to help you pinpoint specific opportunities for increased visuality by assessing the need for what she calls “categories of visual function.” Which are present in your workplace? Which are weak? Which are non-existent? Even when you get that, the rush is not to simply fill in the gaps. They may not all be relevant to your purposes. The rush is to determine which visual functions are most critical for your company’s next steps. Hope is ever in abundance, but most other resources are limited. You have to choose your next visual improvement steps for what they will contribute to your bottom line. In short, they must support your business improvement model. Most companies do not have one. And yet they hope to improve.
