Jamie Nast is author of the popular book Idea Mapping: How to Access Your Hidden Brain Power, Learn Faster, Remember More, and Achieve Success in Business and a well-known visual mapping trainer. She recently wrote several posts on her Idea Mapping Blog about personal profile mind maps, which can be used as a visual resume, or as a supplement to one.
I recently conducted an audio interview with her, in which we drilled down deeper into this type of mind map and its many benefits – which go well beyond serving as a powerful differentiator for savvy job seekers. Imagine any professional setting where it’s advantageous to provide others with a colorful, visually engaging overview of your skills, experience and unique qualities. You get the idea.
This is powerful stuff, and a marvelous application of mind maps!
If you want to see examples of profile mind maps, Jamie has highlighted two of them on her blog, here and here.
If you’d like to access this report, I urge you to try out the Mind Mapping Insider program. As I pointed out in a recent post, it’s a modest investment (less than US$20 a month, or under $1 per day!) that can make a big impact on your personal effectiveness.
