Future of Aging Summit

RTOERO

​

Designing the future for seniors with seniors...

RTOERO, the largest provider of non-profit group health insurance for the education retiree community, wanted to unite subject matter experts, clients and members of the public to collaboratively develop a vision for the future of aging. I designed and delivered two collaborative design workshops, supported with graphic facilitation, to enable participants of RTOERO's Future of Aging Summit to develop this shared vision. We brought together over 200 participants to generate ideas for this future.

I synthesized these ideas into a rich picture after the conference. The rich picture provided a vivid representation of everything we had achieved together and enabled participants to continue working on their initiatives for a brighter future of aging, after the event had ended.

“Jordana helped participants identify opportunities and make actionable commitments to address issues affecting older adults. Her expertise guided the process and ensured the creation of a lasting artifact to sustain our conference's momentum.”

Painting a brighter future for children's health

through visual storytelling..

Children's Healthcare Canada and Healthcare Insurance Reciprocal of Canada held HealthCan2022 to bring together health leader's in the national capital in order to tackle the biggest challenges in children's health. To capture these ideas in a united vision, I created a 15 foot mural integrating notes from all the speeches, workshops and conversations throughout the conference. This visual story was a talking point throughout the event and a great way for participants to take back the insights they had gathered after the event had ended.

In 2015, over 900 attendees from over 80 countries attended TED's official, annual Global Summit in Geneva. Working with Innovation Arts, Jordana graphic recorded 15 talks, weaving the content into one visual map for the entire event. Speakers included Dambisa Moyo and Yanis Varoufakis, among others.

I created a graphic novella following the event that captured the key themes from the conference. It was shared online to continue the conversations begun during the conference.

Visualizing the pillars of leadership

The Canadian Conference on Physician Leadership convened physicians and medical practitioners from across Canada to discuss the role of physician leaders in transformational change. Graphic recording garnered emotion and brought to life themes of diversity and equality in medicine.

Graphic facilitation was the centre-piece of KPMG's annual insurance event in 2016 and served as a powerful tool for reflecting on the day and the content that had been shared.

Creative coaching for industry leaders...

Can planning a "bagel heist" unite a team? This creative coaching workshop for Fast Company's Innovation Festival proved that - yes! - fun, play, creativity and design thinking can enable the quick, effective mobilisation of a multidisciplinary team.

Aimed at helping executives quickly assemble multi-disciplinary teams, this workshop integrated skills assessment activities with collaborative play and design thinking approaches.

Participants learned to quickly define their key skillsets and those of others, in order to identify compatibilities. They grew their teams from these compatibilities, united by a shared goal - a bagel heist (we were in NYC after all). Through visualisation and strategic - albeit playful - planning, the new teams designed strategies for collaboration that capitalised on their unique skills.

Laughter. Creativity. Relationship-building.

By the end of the workshop, participants from vastly different industries had found surprising ways to work together and build connections that would last beyond the festival.
