Use infographics to communicate meaning

Create your own infographics to help your intranet and internal communications come to life when discussing numbers.

Create graphics by hand, using Photoshop, Fireworks. Serif or your favourite image creation software. You’ll want to create coloured circles and squares; it’s not too much of a challenge so give it a go.
