Visual quotes from day 2 at the 2012 Global Leadership Summit (WCGLS).
On day 2, I tried something different. Instead of visual notes, I am calling these visual quotes! Here’s why. I created images by choosing one powerful quote from 4 different sessions. These words really resonated with me. I even noticed the same quotes being tweeted (#wcgls, #wcagls) on Twitter. So, I’m not the only one who found these gold nuggets. Below are my visual quotes from Geoffrey Canada, Bill Hybels, and Pranitha Timothy. Click the image to view larger size.
Wondering how I made these images? I created all images for Day 1 and Day 2 using my iPAD 2 and the Brushes drawing application. For Day 1 images I used a Pogo stylus to draw. For day 2, I skipped the stylus and just let my fingers do the drawing 😀
Don’t miss my post Visual Notes from the Global Leadership Summit – Day 1.

When I heard that Pam Slim was having a twitter party to promote Power Boost Live, I was pumped.
I’ve been following Pam for a long time and she is one of my favorite business coaches and authors.
Since I am a total newbie on Twitter, I figured this was a good way to stick my toe in the water. This was also the first time I attended an event hosted by Karl Staib of Party Biz Connect. Everything went smoothly, no technical difficulties 🙂
Pam shared tons of tips mixed with her real life experiences. Take a peak at the graphic recording below. Tell me, what do you think is the hardest part of marketing? Do you have a favorite marketing tip to share?

The Prince George’s County Library hosted a great event yesterday as a part of Women’s History Month. I just love the library. If you are not taking advantage of your local library, you are missing out. Seriously. Well, enough said, let me tell you about the event.
Cheryl Wood gave a power packed presentation on “How to be a Successful Entrepreneurial Woman.” Cheryl is an author, coach, and a dynamic speaker. I used my iPad to create these sketchnotes “live”, during her presentation. Her enthusiasm and energy was contagious. The library almost had to kick us out because the room was just buzzing when she was done. Loved it.
