The Power of Graphics in Learning

Hats off to this NYT interactive graphic, perhaps the best tool ever to teach citizens about where federal money goes.

Obama’s 2012 Budget Proposal: How It’s Spent - NYTimes.com

It's abundantly clear where the bulk of spending lies and which direction it's headed. I'm a firm believer in the '10 Second Rule' meaning if a slide/graphic doesn't convey it message, without explanation, in 10 seconds or less, it's too complex and it's ineffective.

What graphics can your organization create that grabs employees, makes them slap the foreheads and creates that 'AHA' moment?
