Réka Livits

graphic recorder, visual facilitator, sketchnoter, illustrator “I am a visual practitioner based in Hungary working locally and internationally to support organisations and individuals to communicate more effectively, to cope with the challenges of complexity and to increase their impact through using the power of visual thinking.”

Expertise

  • Graphic recording: I capture the essence and create visual summaries of events and processes by real time drawing. Graphic recording is not only a colourful spot of a conference, workshop, presentation or a training, but also enhances the value and impact of the event by structuring essential information and by creating a lasting visual summary that can be spread and multiplied.
  • Visual facilitation: I support teams to implement visual tools for collaboration, communication and planning. I offer training and workshops on visual facilitation.
  • Sketchnoting: I give workshops of various lengths and formats on visual thinking and sketchnoting.
  • I also create synthesis drawings, infographics, visual reports, whiteboard animations, illustrations both analogue and in digital format.
