Ian, Glimpsing those wonderful drawings inspired me to think that an auditory aspect would enhance the effect, and what would be better than to be reminded to consider how decisions might impact future generations. One of the main functions of the Greek chorus, (or so I've heard since I wasn't there), was to uphold social/moral standards. The chorus acted as intermediary between the audience and the playwright emphasizing what was morally important.
I think the drawings made me feel a bit playful. A small Greek chorus following around managers and acting as moral songsters still makes giggle. But as I stated, I've been away from business for a long time. :-) After the little I witnessed, I thought the idea of the Napkin Academy seemed great. I see more and more people out in the field using tablets (iPads), and tablet technology is perfect for drawing/visual thinking. But more importantly, after the full presentation what did you think?
