Leslie Salmon-Zhu, Graphic Recorder

Leslie Salmon-Zhu has been a professional Graphic Recorder for more than ten years, consulting in over 500 meetings in diverse industries such as healthcare, the arts, financial institutions, government, non-profits, education, interfaith groups, large corporations and community building organizations.

Leslie's work supports and enhances group process, dialog, and understanding by way of visibly recording via text and graphics the key points of meetings. The visual record in mural form "holds" meeting notes in front of the group so that all ideas can be easily viewed, expanded on and categorized. When later photographed into 8 1/2 x 11 form, the murals become a reliable record from which a meeting report can be created.

Leslie states that in doing her work, the key personal value she holds is to "deeply care about and commit to writing" the essence expressed by each participant. This enables her to listen fully for long periods and to not only record spoken words but also to capture the "energy behind the words" through the use of color and images. Her ultimate goal for each consultation is to create an accurate, expressive, usable record from which a client can reflect, learn and build upon.
