People with a visual preference for capturing information have always doodled or mindmapped their To Do lists, whereas those with a preference for creating lists opt for an ordered list of tasks. What we’re seeing now is that project management tools are getting better at catering for both preferences, and making it easier to share information visually with the people who need it. And at the same time, making it easier for everyone else to grasp complex ideas through simple graphics.

Project managers need to think about how they can break away from long documents and present project progress and other project information in a graphical format. Somewhat ironically, we’re going to talk more about that in this white paper.
