Workshops & Learning Design

Think to draw. Draw to see.

Katrina designs visual frameworks for clarity and insight and her sessions typically involve drawing, sketching and analysis of imagery to shed light on that which is difficult to see. She uses pictures partnered with pedagogy (the science of teaching and learning) to explore complexity through visual thinking frameworks that make muddy waters clearer. Her workshops can be co-constructed to offer guided frameworks to work through specific problems within your business or she can provide visual framework sprints for your leaders or teams to explore strategy, creative problem‑solving and collaboration.

Visual Thinking Brain Gym

Join Katrina Ward for a “brain gym” session that treats your thinking like a muscle: stretching, strengthening, and retraining it to think more clearly. Using visual thinking routines anchored in simple graphic motifs and drawing exercises, this workshop equips teams to simplify complexity, align around shared meaning, and communicate more effectively.

Corporate teams will learn to:

• Map messy problems with graphic organisers that match process to outcome

• Practice problem‑solving through quick drawing sprints and visual experimentation

• Communicate complex ideas with visual tools and shared visual language

• Use visual thinking to clarify complexity and reveal hidden patterns

• Reflect on how images shape meaning and drive better decision‑making

The result: Teams that think more clearly, communicate with greater precision, and align faster around shared goals.

Perfect for: Leadership teams, project groups, and cross‑functional teams who need sharper sense‑making and clearer communication in high‑pressure or ambiguous contexts.

3 hour workshop | Max 12 participants

Kandinsky connection - Listen better to Lead better

Join Katrina for a transformative one-day workshop that uses Kandinsky’s bold paintings to sharpen your team’s listening, intuition, and decision-making.

Corporate teams will learn to:

• Decode complex signals through synaesthesia-inspired exercises

• Master active listening with real-time drawing feedback

• Translate abstract sounds into clear visual imagery

• Apply intuitive listening directly to meetings, negotiations, and strategy sessions

The result: Leadership teams that hear what’s really being said, align faster, and turn insight into action.

Perfect for: Executive teams, leadership programs, and high-stakes communicators who need to cut through noise.

Full-day intensive | Max 12 participants
