Jana Lyn-Holly
Jana
Lyn-Holly is a pioneer in the field of graphic facilitation. She has
integrated her expertise in training and visual communication to
develop
Mindesign,
an innovative method of thinking that is utilised in
graphic facilitation and presentation design. Mindesign uses the power
of the verbal metaphor, visual symbols and cognitive questioning to
create powerful mental designs.
An internationalist, Jana
arrived in New Zealand in 1986 on contract to AIT (now AUT) as a senior
lecturer in art and design. In 1990, she began her research into
accelerated learning methods and creativity in the workplace. She
recognised that leadership in the Information Age required
fundamentally different ways of thinking.
Jana founded
Leading Light Communication Ltd (now Mindesign International Ltd) in
1992 to create a strategic bridge between leadership and the arts. Her
graphic facilitation work is part of an integrated approach to business
and community cultures that combines with digital design capability.
Her
unique ability has contributed to the success of conferences, seminars
and meetings in the corporate, education, government and community
sectors.
Influenced by the work of Peter Senge and
principles of learning organisations, Jana recognises the value of
collaborative design. Through her artful process of Mindesign, she has
drawn out key concepts of some of the most innovative thinkers in New
Zealand, Australia and the USA.
Mindesign Ltd has designed
strategic presentations for clients such as: Air New Zealand,
Heinz-Watties, Fletcher Challenge, Ministry of Pacific Island Affairs,
NZ State Services Commission, Telstra (Aus) and National Australia
Bank.
