I'm curious what you think after reading
Hi Michael,
Thanks for the plug on THE BACK OF THE NAPKIN. Ironically, when I first started working on the book, I had the same concerns you do: 1) Wouldn't it be too obvious? 2) Didn't everybody already do this?
I needn't have worried: what I have found is that for most people in business, the idea of solving problems with pictures is far from obvious -- in fact, it's downright shocking! Second, most businesspeople don't draw at all -- and not because they can't. It's because nobody told them they could!
In writing the book, I really wanted to focus on giving everyone -- whether a born illustrator or terrified of a blank whiteboard -- a simple set of tools and rules for solving problems with pictures. After you've had a chance to read through the book, I'd love to hear if you think I've been successful.
Thanks,
Dan Roam
