In today's age of remote and hybrid work, organizations want teams to collaborate, share ideas, and scale their creative process better. According to Canva's Visual Economy Report that surveyed 1,600 global business leaders, communicating visually is fast becoming the most impactful way to communicate in the workplace. Eighty-nine percent of them believe that it enhances collaboration and agree that visual communication methods have helped team members connect with each other.
"Businesses now must learn how to communicate visually and leave lasting impact to their stakeholders and customers. It's made possible when your teams have the tool to create and collaborate together, without having to learn complex processes that take time to learn," said Maisie Littaua, head of growth of Canva Philippines.
