Introduction

Jonny Goldstein helps people picture success. He brings over 10 years of teaching, art, and communications experience to his work as a graphic recorder and consultant. Jonny's clients include the New York City Department of Health, PreventHumanTrafficking.org, and iVillage-NBC Universal.

As a graphic recorder, Jonny draws pictures of conversations in real time. Participants see their discussions transformed into visual diagrams of pictures and key words at meetings, workshops, and keynotes. This helps them notice patterns, think critically, and get on the same page with each other. Jonny can create mural-sized or sketchpad-sized visual summaries to suit the occasion.

Vivid Takeaways: Photos of graphic summaries extend the power of an event long after it ends. Jonny can give you images on a DVD, on a secure web page, or in a PDF. He can even make them move in an animated video. Jonny's images have been used in email newsletters, on the web, and in print publications to deepen the impact of his clients' ideas. Thousands of viewers have watched his custom animations.

Visual Thinking Workshops:

Executives increasingly recognize that visual thinking is a critical skill for communication and management. Visual thinking helps teams “get the picture” and share that picture with other people more effectively. Jonny has years of experience coaching people from different professional and cultural backgrounds to draw, problem solve, and communicate visually. Jonny offers the following workshops or can customize one for your needs:

  • Drawing for Non-Artists
  • Applied Imagination
  • Visual frameworks for understanding and sharing
  • Growing and Harvesting Ideas

Additional Consulting Services:  Jonny is available for in-person consultation or live web conferencing to help you paint a picture of your current situation, explore alternatives,  and visualize ways to reach your goals.

Custom illustration for presentations: Sometimes you need the perfect image to convey your message in a presentation. Jonny works with you to create pictures that communicate your point powerfully.

Jonny Goldstein holds an M.P.S. from the Interactive Telecommunications Program at New York University, also known as the “Center for the recently possible.” He studied drawing and animation at the School of Visual Arts. Jonny was awarded the Silver Medal in the Mind Mapping Competition at the 1999 Mind Sports Olympiad. Over the years, he has taught hundreds of people of all ages to draw and visually communicate. He is the cofounder of VizThink Philadelphia, a community of visual thinking professionals which meets at Wharton School of Business. His illustrations have appeared in publications like PR Strategy and Tactics, The Industry Standard, and Die Welt Kompakt. Jonny has appeared on Tech TV and has been linked to by prominent blogs BoingBoing and Scobleizer. In his spare time, when he is not drawing, he enjoys playing soccer. He also plays a mean blues harmonica.
