絶対とは言い切れませんが、なんとなくビジネス脳力が高い人は図にして、能力が高くない人ほど文章で指示を出してくる気がします。文章で絵について言われてもそれは個々人の感覚によるものなのでよくわからないことが多々あります。
絵にできないと「間が空いてる気がします」とか「もう少し色を濃く」とか抽象的な内容の指示が飛んできます。ビジネススキルが低いと感覚で仕事をしがちなので、やり取りが面倒に感じるのは自分だけではないはずです。
こうした問題は視覚的な手法を取り入れることで大きく改善できます。たとえば、説明を文章だけで示すのではなく、簡単な図などを使えば、情報は一目で理解されやすくなります。視覚情報は脳が瞬時に処理できるため、意思決定のスピードも上がります。特に複雑な内容を扱う場合、図を活用することで、全体像や細部の関係性を直感的に把握できるため、効果は絶大です。
ビジネスの現場では、情報を分かりやすく、迅速に伝えることが重要です。そのため、文章に頼りすぎず適切な場面で視覚的な手法を取り入れることが、成果につながる大切なポイントだと言えます。
とはいえ、やってくれない人は多いのですが・・・。
It’s not an absolute rule, but it seems that people with higher business acumen tend to present ideas visually, while those with lower skills often rely on written instructions. When instructions about visuals are conveyed through text, they frequently become subjective and hard to grasp. Phrases like “It feels a bit off” or “Make the color slightly darker” are common, but without visual clarity, these directives can lead to confusion and inefficiency.
When individuals struggle to present information visually, they often issue abstract instructions based on personal feelings, such as “It feels too empty” or “This needs more impact.” This can lead to time-consuming back-and-forth exchanges. Those with lower business skills tend to work based on intuition, which can make communication feel cumbersome—not just for me, but likely for others too.
However, this problem can be significantly improved by incorporating visual methods. For example, instead of relying solely on textual explanations, a simple diagram or sketch can instantly make the information easier to understand. Visual content is processed by the brain much faster than text, leading to quicker decision-making. When dealing with complex concepts, visuals allow people to intuitively grasp the overall structure and finer details, making them incredibly effective.
In business environments, it’s essential to convey information clearly and efficiently. Striking the right balance between text and visuals is key to achieving better outcomes. That said, many people still don’t adopt this approach, which remains a challenge…
