Arlosoul: Visualize Innovation
is a Denver-based consulting and strategy firm. Since 2014, Arlosoul has partnered with and consulted for a variety of local, regional, national and multi- national organizations and businesses from the private sector, non-profit industry and local, state and federal agencies and departments.
Using visual strategy and strong facilitation, Arlosoul’s primary business is to develop, partner, facilitate and elevate the capacity of its clients to accomplish the work they identify as “mission critical”. This work frequently involves exploring, understanding, segmenting, “making meaning” of, and strategizing about the complex challenges presented for which there are no ready or apparent solutions.

Arlosoul’s strategic illustrations are well-developed visual concepts that align to the outcomes
defined by you, your team and other stakeholders. Unique and customized illustrations depict
YOUR stories, actions, and approach.
Building on current cognitive and brain research about how people learn and apply learning at, and in, work. We know that pictures are:
A fast way to get agreement and consensus with a group
its easierto get agreement on an image vs. text
An efficient way for the brain to process information
up to 60 times faster than just reading text
An effective and efficient way of making new ideas
and knowledge “stick”
A practical and fun way for people
to share their thinking and ideas
Useful for all learning styles
to make meaning of what is important and how to apply it
Pictures keep people engaged
and create an enduring memory/recall of a shared experience
Once the illustrations are completed, they can be digitally scanned and delivered in user-friendly formats to use as communication tools, track success of plans made, share compelling ideas with others (including internal and external stakeholders), and execute on strategies you have designed.
