Unconventional Careers! Last time I interviewed Julie Stuart she talked about leaving her job in politics and starting her business as a graphic facilitator. Julie is a wildly intuitive graphic facilitator and visual strategist with a knack for seeing the bigger picture.
Julie has been recognized in the Harvard Business Review for her graphic facilitation work, she’s visually facilitated high-stakes meetings for such clients as Accenture, GE, Eli Lilly, Victoria’s Secret, the Center for Disease Control (CDC), Duke University, Skype and the United Way.
Julie adores playing with possibilities, bringing new ideas into the light to reveal the unexpected, and exploring world-changing ideas.
It’s time to check back in with Julie about her unconventional career.
