I will be holding a workshop within shortly with 100 people, I consider myself as fairly experienced in holding workshops for teams (5-25 people) but haven’t done anything this big before.
My setup is Zoom + Miro, do you have previous experience of running workshops at that size? Hit me up with your best practices.
Best regards,
Johan
Like how do you handle if someone unlocks one of your objects and deletes it?
With a group that size, I hope you have a number of co-facilitators to work with smaller subgroups of the 100.
I would also highly recommend taking manual backups on a regular basis over the course of the workshop (perhaps during scheduled breaks) such that you can easily restore back anything which is lost.
Finally, be very judicious about who has full edit access vs. who is just able to comment or view - that can help to limit the “chaos”.
Good luck!
Kiron
Thank @kiron!
Very good advice indeed!
But what would be the best practice if I indeed want all 100 to be active participants, ie be editors. After all, that’s the major value with using a virtual whiteboard, no?
if there are items which you wish to protect, you could try to do so by covering them with low opacity “shield” shapes which you lock in place. That will prevent inadvertent deletion.
I’d also strongly recommend having everyone turn off the collaborators’ cursors view option to avoid folks getting dizzy
Kiron
correct - this is a good strategy for things which people need to look at (e.g. images) but which you don’t want them to modify. If it is a shape in which you want modifications to occur or you want them to click within it, this wouldn’t work and you’d have to go back to the default locking as the only option available.
Kiron
Make sure the “shield” is in the front so when you click anywhere within it you will be selecting it.
