🌴172. Why drawing can change the world feat. Marcel van Hove (Weekend Rewind)

When I first started facilitating, I saw flip charts as a tool to scribble brainstorms or sketch a quick model. That all changed when I met today's guest, Marcel van Hove, who showed me how whiteboards and markers can be used to solve complex problems, de-escalate conflict, and create incredible team collaboration.In this episode, Marcel shares:How he went from software geek to visual facilitation geekThe German roots of the Bikablo method (and what it actually means)Why drawing with others creates psychological safety and better ideasPractical tips for making your handwriting workshop-worthyThe power of visual thinking in change communication and team buy-inYou'll also hear why PowerPoint might be killing your vibe, how visuals can disarm tension in high-stakes meetings, and why you don’t need to be “creative” to draw like a pro. (Spoiler: Marcel swears he had zero artistic ability!)🎨 Want to turn your marker skills into a facilitation superpower? Marcel’s story — and the Bikablo community — might just inspire your next move.🖊️ Mentions:Bikablo (https://bikablo.com)Visual Friends (https://visualfriends.com)Sign up for free for my best articles every week: Work Fame.Show notes for every episode at https://podcast.leannehughes.comP.S.
