Eric Villarama, yes, the hubby of Donita Rose, just finished today his 2nd run of his Mind Mapping for the Marketing, Brand and Advertising team.
Nicole, our project manager, was there with Eric the whole day and I'm sure she'll have some nice reports and pictures to post soon.
I really enjoy Eric V's sessions. He doesn't rely on powerpoint slides--instead he interacts and makes you think.

What is a Mind Map?
A Mind Map is a powerful graphic technique which provides a universal key to unlock the potential of the brain.
It harnesses the full range of cortical skills - word, image, number, logic, rhythm, colour and spatial awareness - in a single, uniquely powerful manner. In so doing, it gives you the freedom to roam the infinite expanses of your brain.
The Mind Map can be applied to every aspect of life where improved learning and clearer thinking will enhance human performance.
Originated in the late 1960s by Tony Buzan, Mind Maps are now used by millions of people around the world - from the very young to the very old - whenever they wish to use their minds more effectively.
