Invented by Tony Buzan, it relies on how the brain naturally associates ideas. This training delivers the complete method over two intensive days.<\/p>\n The training details Tony Buzan's principles: a central topic, colored main branches, keywords (no sentences), images and visual links. These simple rules produce clear maps that everyone understands.<\/p>\n The course alternates between manual mind mapping (paper, markers) which solicits creativity and digital tools (XMind, MindManager, MindMeister, Miro) more practical for collaboration and archiving.<\/p>\n The training details main tools: XMind (free\/paid, robust), MindManager (market reference), MindMeister (online collaborative), Miro for workshops. You see strengths and limits of each.<\/p>\n The heart of the course is concrete application: structure a complex project, prepare a meeting or presentation, take notes in meetings, organize brainstorming, plan your week.<\/p>\n Designed for project managers, managers, trainers, students, self employed professionals and all profiles who handle complex ideas daily.<\/p>\n In Carouge and Le Flon, in ITTA premises, this course runs over two intensive days with an expert instructor.<\/p>\n What is mind mapping?<\/strong><\/p>\n Mind mapping is a visual thinking technique that structures ideas around a central topic via hierarchical and colored branches.<\/p>\n Do I need to be creative or good at drawing?<\/strong><\/p>\n No, mind maps rely on structure and keywords, not artistic talent.<\/p>\n Which digital mind mapping tools are studied?<\/strong><\/p>\n XMind, MindManager, MindMeister mainly. Other tools mentioned as needed.<\/p>\n Does mind mapping work in teams?<\/strong><\/p>\n Yes, collaborative tools (MindMeister, Miro) allow team co-creation.<\/p>\n Is this training held in Geneva?<\/strong><\/p>\n Yes, at the ITTA center in Carouge in Geneva, at Le Flon in Lausanne and in a virtual classroom.<\/p>\n How long to integrate mind mapping daily?<\/strong><\/p>\n The basics are acquired in two days. Lasting integration comes with regular practice.<\/p>\n How to go further after this training?<\/strong><\/p>\n Project management trainings to structure your missions, or the professional writing course to transform a mind map into a document.<\/p>\n Profiles in project management, R&D, training, consulting, marketing and any collaborator who regularly structures ideas on complex subjects. In Geneva and Lausanne, the course welcomes participants from international organizations, banking, consulting and growing SMEs. No specific prerequisite is required other than a concrete willingness to progress on the subject.<\/p>\n You leave with an operational mastery of the fundamentals, reusable canvases on your concrete cases, a structured action plan for the weeks that follow. Many participants report a visible effect from the first week back, with sustainable anchoring over four to six weeks of regular practice. The course combines short theory inputs, practical exercises on your real situations and personalized trainer debrief.<\/p>\n A project leader mapping a complex project in a half-day to clarify scope and stakeholders. A consultant structuring a client diagnosis with a mind map serving as discussion support. A trainer preparing pedagogical content visually before switching to slides. The course adapts exercises to your context with personalized trainer feedback, and each participant leaves with an action plan calibrated to their own situation.<\/p>\n This training combines well with meeting facilitation for collaborative animation, creativity for the ideation phase, and time management for priority organization. Many participants enroll in one of these courses in the following trimester, according to their current priority and professional context.<\/p>\n Tony Buzan popularized mind mapping in the 1970s based on memory and learning research. Beyond the technique, it is a powerful cognitive tool to structure non-linear thinking, facilitate memorization and stimulate associations. This training proposes a rigorous initiation to both principles and modern digital tools (XMind, MindMeister, MindNode).<\/p>\n\n Most participants signal a noticeable effect from the first or second week of return, with deeper anchoring over four to six weeks of regular practice. The course closes with a personalized practice plan calibrated on your professional rhythm, with milestones at one, three and six months for participants wanting to track their progression more formally over time.<\/p>\n At ITTA centers in Geneva and Lausanne, this course runs in a small group with an expert trainer and a format alternating concise theory, practical exercises and personalized debrief. Group confidentiality is explicit and held. Each participant arrives with a real case and leaves with an action plan calibrated to their context. The course integrates recent evolutions of the domain (digital tools, hybrid formats, 2025-2026 practices) without losing focus on fundamentals.<\/p>\n Does the course cover digital mind mapping tools?<\/strong><\/p>\n Yes, several tools (XMind, MindMeister, MindNode, Whimsical) are presented with their comparative advantages.<\/p>\n Need to be at ease with drawing?<\/strong><\/p>\n Not at all. The course shows that the quality of a mind map lies in structure, not in graphic rendering.<\/p>\n Does the course integrate collaborative use of mind maps?<\/strong><\/p>\n Yes, collaborative animation in meeting or workshop is treated in a dedicated sequence.<\/p>\n Where do sessions take place?<\/strong><\/p>\n ITTA has three centers in French speaking Switzerland: in Geneva (Carouge, Route des Jeunes 35), in Lausanne at the Flon (Rue des Cotes de Montbenon 16) and at Lausanne Mon-Repos (Avenue de Mon-repos 24). The training is also available in virtual classroom.<\/p>","inclus_dans_ce_cours_virtuel":"\n\t
