PCHC: "Visual Thinking" Live Webinar With Dr. Mary Temple Grandin

Hosted by Philadelphia Coordinated Health Care

In her new virtual presentation, “Visual Thinking” based on her newest literary offering, Dr. Temple Grandin helps us understand how a world increasingly geared towards people who are verbal, tends to sideline those who are visual thinkers, screening them out at school and overlooking them in the workplace. Rather than continuing to waste their singular gifts, which drives a collective loss in productivity and innovation, Dr. Grandin proposes new approaches to educating, parenting, employing, and collaborating with visual thinkers.

Learning Objectives:
▪ New ideas for educating the “visual” thinker
▪ Helpful advice for raising a child who sees things visually
▪ Enabling the visual individual to find their “niche” in life
▪ Embracing visual thinking and applying it to the workplace
