Clear, Concise, Creative

In this highly interactive, hands-on, and fun workshop, Gorf leverages his decades of experience as a visual storytelling designer and editor to guide participants to the “superhero way of thinking” that will enable them to communicate in a more clear, concise and creative manner.

Participants will collaborate in a team (or teams) to develop their story, then storyboard and draw an original cartoon that is relevant to their organizational roles and contributes to the business—in the process unleashing their hidden superpower: better communication.

No drawing skill required. Really. Stick figures and handwriting work well. Simple is better!
