Visual practitioners claim that during visual meetings, teams utilize visual techniques to share information in a manner that enables the team to collaboratively establish team mental models and construct team knowledge. The suggested outcomes of visual meetings are improved team communication, team collaboration, and ultimately team performance—during the meetings. However, the lack of scholarly literature on the topic of visual meetings demonstrated a gap in scientific knowledge. While the growing popularity of visual practitioners and visual meetings is apparent, and visual meetings have the potential to become a performance improvement intervention, a better understanding of this contemporary approach to team meetings was needed, especially if visual meetings are to be adopted by the human performance technology community. The purpose of this basic qualitative study was to advance the understanding of the central phenomenon (visual meetings) by exploring the experiences of the participants (a team) during visual meetings. The following research questions guided this study (1) What factors influence a team’s ability to select, learn, and use visual techniques during visual meetings? (2) How do teams use visual techniques to establish team mental models and construct team knowledge during visual meetings? (3) How do teams describe team communication, collaboration, and performance during visual meetings? The larger population from which the study sample was drawn was a multiple-site manufacturing organization. Purposeful sampling was used to establish a new, self-managed team representing each manufacturing site, which inherently reflected the larger population. Triangulating data from participant interviews and researcher observations and utilizing a multi-phase thematic analysis led to the establishment of ten themes that successfully answered the research questions, and confirmed that visual meetings do have the potential to improve team communication, team collaboration, and ultimately team performance—during the meetings. The findings of this study have implications for both research and practice. Those who may be interested conducting research on visual meetings will appreciate the theoretical implications of this study, as well as the implications for the advancement of scientific knowledge. Those who may be interested in conducting performance improvement interventions based on visual meetings will appreciate the practical implications of this study. Ultimately, this study may lead to further research on visual meetings, and the design and utilization of a new type of performance improvement intervention based on visual meetings.
