Hi everyone! We can’t wait for your questions and reactions to our learning session about how you can make hybrid teamwork happen in Miro.

 

Before the session begins, I’d love to know: what sorts of hybrid rituals, practices, or touchpoints are you experimenting with right now? Have you planned out when the team will connect live and when they’ll connect async? The Miro Customer Education team would love to share tips and best practices!

Who else is doing this today with me? :D

@Ali Habashi I LOVE this question! Thank you for asking. We have several templates in Miroverse. A good one to get started with is the 5 Whys template. I also really like this structured problem solving template and this problem solving workshop template. You can check out more problem solving templates here. And I’ll also recommend Farnum street - an external resource/blog/series of books/podcasts that are all about first principles thinking, decision making and problem solving. some of the content here might help you come up with some ideas that you can turn into your very own first Miroverse template. :) Hope this helps!

@Tami Volkert So glad you liked it! We just whipped it up for this session, but I’ll look into Miroverse as an option. Will keep you posted on it!

YES JEN! We need Coffee Talk on Miroverse! cc: @Anna Savina 

Is this break out asynchronous?

@Jen Clark I really liked the Google Calendar integration demoed during Miro Next, where you could add a Miro board natively in a calendar booking! Unfortunately, we don't use Google Calendar at my company… 🙈 Do you think this will be implemented for other calendar apps as well, like Microsoft Outlook? Such a great feature!

@ElisabethB Excellent question, and we totally hear you on making things as seamless as possible for your partners. Some elements on the board can be data rich, so we recommend a few of the following best practices for weaker internet connections (no matter where you are):

  • Use built in elements on the board like sticky notes, text boxes, and comments to collaborate as these are more lightweight elements
  • Turn off collaborators cursors to free up more bandwidth
  • Use Miro in one tab and close others on your browser of choice

You can learn more about optimizing board performance here. We do have system recommendations which you can also review here and send to your partners in advance. Do know that we also offer Miro on smartphones if apps are an option for you!

Where can I find the Coffee Talk template you shared in the video?

Hello @Tim Perree - welcome!

 

The Customer Ed team is in this thread live to answer questions -- we provided the recording of their full session above so everyone can watch at their own pace. We’ll be here all week to make sure you can get the answers you need!

When I embed slides into the team hub, can I present it in presentation mode without having to expand them into frames?

Great question! You can embed slides, like say from a Google Slides presentation, directly into Miro. You’ll need to place them on frames so that Miro can recognize them for presentation mode, but you can resize your individual slides to completely cover the frame for a seamless experience.

 

You can learn a little more about Presentations in our Help Center as well!

So glad you liked that section @Henrik Ståhl ! The best place to stay up to date on future calendar integrations like these will be our App Marketplace inside Miro - but do you happen to access your calendar through MS Teams? We already have an integration for that which allows you to add Miro boards to meeting invites. I’ve linked you the article here if you’d like to learn more!

Many thanks for a great presentation. I am rather new in Miro and looking for a template which would help provide some structure for “Complex problems” that don’t have easy answers, goal being a more structured way which would allow for critical thinking. I am aware this is a tall order but there are some existing thought models in terms of divergent phase and convergent phase for such complex issues and I thought to ask whether you are aware of any template either from you or someone within the Miro community? Many thanks, A-

I’m new to Miro. Where can I find the registration link? 

Hello!


I wonder if you might have any tips as to how best organize boards, in case there are multiple? 

With 10+ boards and no folder structure, this may become tricky; maybe there’s an easy solution I haven’t seen yet?

Thanks a lot!

I’m confused. I signed up for this event. I can only see pre recorded videos. How do i join a breakout group?

Is this break out asynchronous?

 

It is, Matteo! But we’re here to answer your questions in real time. Let me know what comes up for you!

@Sarah Flaherty welcome!

We were given Miro.com/next to sign up to Beta users or if we are interested in a lot of the new developments.  When I go there, all I get is the event.  is there another link to click on what we want more information on or to test out?

 

Hi @Sarah Flaherty! You can find the beta link here: https://miro-survey.typeform.com/mirobeta?typeform-source=miro.com
