An exploration into the future of imagination work and remote collaboration.

Imagination is what makes us human. But what is imagination work?

It’s the work that happens when we come together to learn and understand problems so that we can decide which problems to solve. It’s how we share ideas and dream of what's possible so that we can go and make it happen.

This special kind of work is as critical as it is hard. And it is especially hard when we have no common place to come together. It’s at the intersection of these two hard problems that we now focus our attention.

Introducing MURAL Imagine: An exploration into the future of imagination work and remote collaboration. 

What will we find at the intersection of imagination work and remote collaboration?

MURAL Imagine is bringing together the world’s leading minds to foster discussion, to see work differently, and to help build a community of imagination workers—a community of people like you. And whether you’re an expert in facilitation, design thinking, or agile methodologies or simply committed to solving hard problems through visual thinking and collaboration, you’ll find at MURAL Imagine a space to learn, understand, share, and grow.

Let’s explore that space together and see work differently.

Let's see work — and how we work together — differently. Register for MURAL Imagine now!

Let's envision how to connect with each other more deeply through visual collaboration—sharing inspiration for the future of collaboration that's happening now.

Here’s how it works: For the next several weeks, we'll be sharing playlists of talks focused on what matters most for successful visual collaboration, plus live sessions you can attend to get timely questions answered.

Go ahead and sign up for MURAL Imagine now, here.

Here’s a preview of what you can look forward to:

BRIDGE THE GAP WITH DESIGN THINKING AT SCALE

Design thinking has changed how teams at the world’s largest companies work to solve the right problems. As teams are increasingly distributed—often spanning time zones and even hemispheres—they must adapt how they solve the right problems in a remote context.

Learn about how design thinking experts are achieving successful outcomes—no matter the distance.


COLLABORATE VISUALLY TO SEE WHAT THEY SAY

For the virtual workspace to truly replicate the interactivity of the physical workplace requires being able to see what someone is saying—which we refer to as visual thinking.

Discover how to advance collaboration beyond digital whiteboards and how organizations use visual collaboration to improve performance and results.


GO TO SCHOOL ON VIRTUAL LEARNING

Educational instruction is a natural fit for visualizing lessons and ideas, but digital whiteboards alone don’t guarantee learning.

Explore how visualization can be used to increase student engagement and performance.


BUILD IN ENGAGEMENT (AND ELIMINATE ZOOM FATIGUE)

To be seen and heard in a virtual brainstorming session or team meeting can be intimidating and challenging. Very often, the best ideas can come from the quietest person in the back of the room.

Learn how to develop the skill of creative collaboration and facilitate sessions that get everyone engaged and participating.


THE FUTURE OF TEAM COLLABORATION

For many, working from home now means relearning how to work. And like all challenges, it offers a valuable opportunity.

Let’s envision new ways to work together even if we’re apart—to do the best work of our lives.

THE FUTURE OF CLIENT COLLABORATION

From sales discovery to consulting service delivery, how are teams engaging with clients from a distance? In this playlist we'll explore how teams are adapting to remote client engagements to build strong, lasting relationships.


Register below to join us, and you can participate with any—or all—of these virtual events as they happen. And share MURAL Imagine with your friends and colleagues to further the discussion! Our global MURAL team is so excited to explore the future of imagination work and remote collaboration together, with all of you creating it.
