Idea Maps 486 – 488. Planning Annual “Partnership for Climate” Meeting
13 Oct 2023 Author: Jamie Nast In: Idea Mapping Example
Szymon Piotr Koscierzynski is the Chief Expert in the Climate Policy Unit in the City Hall of Warsaw, Poland. We met in 2012 when I was teaching Idea Mapping and MindManager for the Academy of Evaluation’s 5th group to go through this program. For more information on this program see the December 12, 2012 posting.
Last month Szymon and his colleague Ania were responsible for running the annual “Partnership for Climate” meeting where nearly 50 experts took part. This idea maps helped them plan and organize the meeting so they wouldn’t forget anything and could execute flawlessly! It also helped Szymon to briefly train a colleague in public speaking. As a result of the successful meeting Szymon received congratulations from his Director and the Director Coordinator of Green Warsaw.
More about the Partnership for Climate: The aim of the Partnership for Climate Platform is to carry out, together with its partners, comprehensive, innovative educational and promotional activities related to climate change issues, supporting the city’s drive towards climate neutrality. The Platform organises events of a diverse nature, including conferences, debates, and ecological campaigns to exchange experiences and raise public awareness of environmental and climate protection.
Partners of the “Partnership for Climate” include organizations and institutions representing a wide variety of environments, e.g. government and self-government administration units, embassies, NGOs and institutions for which Climate Protection is very important in their business. The partners show concern for the environment in their daily activities and, through their participation in the “Partnership for Climate”, demonstrate their commitment to nature conservation and building a sustainable city.
The main thematic areas in which the City of Warsaw will take action under the Partnership for Climate are energy efficiency, renewable energy sources, environmentally friendly transport and promotion of ecological lifestyles.
The objective of the Partnership for Climate platform is achieved by sharing the experience, knowledge, ideas, actions, resources of different actors towards a common goal – environmental and climate protection, mutual support of all partners in their activities towards the set goal, and joint implementation of specific projects.

While meeting people at the Fiddler’s Creek pool, if I’ve heard it once I’ve heard it 100 times — “I’m terrible at remembering names, so I may have to ask you several times before I remember.”

See more details about this workshop in the above flier. The cost of this class is $59 per person.

Idea Map or Mind Map For Vacation Planning. Example 484 – 485.
13 Jul 2020 Author: Jamie Nast In: Idea Mapping Example
Here are two Idea Mapping examples used for vacation planning. The first one was actually created by me for a trip we took to Las Vegas. It was organized by day, which show we were seeing, times, and distance from the hotel.
The second Idea Map was created by one of my Boeing clients Tonya Deines. She was planning a trip to the Bahamas. Her map took a different approach. She included flight times, packing, scheduled events, and links to photos of their trip.
Next time you need to plan a trip try using an Idea Map to organize your getaway!
More Idea Maps from Luther College Principles of Management Students. Examples 480-483.
21 Jan 2020 Author: Jamie Nast In: Idea Mapping Example, Mind Mapping Examples
These Idea Mapping examples are from Dr. Tim Schweizer’s Principles of Management students. I have been blogging about Tim’s work with his students since October 2009 — shortly after he attended one of my Idea Mapping Workshops. Search this blog on “Luther College” for more examples. I will share more in the days that follow.
Tim has developed a solid process to successfully teach Idea Mapping to his students. Each semester Tim takes the first two class periods to teach this tool to his students. Their first assignment is to create a map with “Who Am I?” as the topic. You can see many of those examples on this blog. Their second assignment is a take home assignment to create an idea map on their topic of choice – something personally relevant. More of these here. Sometimes there is a third assignment asking them to overview a business book and then capture their thoughts and reactions in an idea map. More of these here.
The first idea map in this posting is from Ben Harney about a cycling trip through Panama. Next idea map is from Elisabeth Athas. She used this tool to develop her character as a nurse in the show “A Thread in the Dark.” Next is a map from Claudia Calderon about Bolivia. The last idea map is about training for a triathlon by Dan Anderson.
Sure wish I’d learned Idea Mapping when I was in college. Thank you Ben, Elisabeth, Dan and Claudia for sharing your maps!
