Vision packs are the foundation of the CCS. Each playing-card-sized pack consists of 52 specially selected photographs, illustrations and words.
An important aspect of the use of the vision packs is that all participants have their own pack to use during a session. This is a key to achieving open, honest communication and to helping people rally around a common set of ideals. All vision packs have the same set of imagery.
CCS vision packs are included as the key component in all Master Kits. Master Kit users can purchase additonal vision packs as required.
Professional facilitators may also choose to take advantage of the unique and user-friendly nature of the vision packs and make them an innovative 'leave-behind' in professional programs. After using the cards during a training session, participants can be given a vision pack together with some follow-up activities (called CCS transfer activities) to carry out back in the workplace.
CCS vision packs are made to the highest casino playing card quality and can be used repeatedly without showing signs of wear. Each pack is housed in a durable plastic box.
As you might expect, lots of people ask this question. The selection process began when the idea was first used in the Compatibility boardgames we developed (and still sell around the world). In the first instance it was trial and error using pictures from popular newspapers and magazines and sampling people’s responses.
However we gradually came to realise that certain kinds of images caused people to open up better than others – most particularly images that were somehow familiar and a little common – almost like those from an average photo album.
Over a period of 7 or 8 years we gradually refined the pack down to the present set. We actually were planning on only having 50, but because of the way high quality playing cards like this are manufactured, it made sense to go with 52.
