What it looks like :Leslie tracks and illuminates dialogue, decisions, plans and processes by creating mural-sized meeting charts in real-time. Her services increase engagement and visual collaboration with the results being the surfacing of insights from the group. Leslie is known for her quick uptake of complex and unfamiliar content and feeling very comfortable in high-level and/or contentious meetings. She is also known for incredible speed and accuracy within an artistic metaphor or framework. Her work is perfectly weighted between accurate content capture and on-the-spot imagery that illuminates, not decorates, the groups’ ideas.

At the heart of her work: Leslie’s noticeable passion for her work stems from the drive to bring a larger “visual voice” to individuals’ contributions so that organizations in which they work can be more authentically connected and successful.

Post-event: the large charts of the group’s dialogues are scanned to digital files, giving clients both a visual report and a launching point for future actions. In addition, the large original murals are also returned to the client to use for communicating the meeting results in other forms, such as posting on social media, use in marketing programs, displaying in offices, sharing broadly with the meetings' stakeholders and beyond.

Leslie’s client list is rich with innovative companies and organizations from Fortune 100 corporations to government and small non-profits.
