Cultivating thought diversity in your team

Thought diversity offers a boost to any type of team. And on Agile teams in particular, diversity of thought isn’t just a competitive advantage — it’s non-negotiable. Here’s why: 👍Teams that embody and prioritize openness, respect, and courage provide welcoming, inclusive spaces that cultivate diverse opinions and ideas from all team members.👍Agile teams need to work, learn, and act nimbly. And when they have solid diversity of thought, teams benefit from more perspectives and  ideas — and that breadth of knowledge makes it easier to make informed decisions and innovate rapidly.👍A diverse Agile team can more accurately comprehend and even relate to those backgrounds and viewpoints. Read the full article to discover great tips to cultivate thought diversity. #agileretrospectives #Retrospectives #Miro #agilemindset

Share & help bring our Miro data to life!

Community!From August to September 2022, Miro surveyed over 2,000 people about their relationship with work. Our findings reveal that, though the current state of work is draining and knowledge workers' desire for connection remains strong. And although many companies are shifting to a hybrid work model and research shows a majority of workers want this but hybrid is still a work in progress.🔗 We'd love your thoughts on how to make hybrid work better as well as your thoughts on collaboration in the workplace. Please share your opinions here.Your stories will help bring our data to life, illuminating how three interconnecting relationships—to work itself, to each other, and to our work selves—are forming the foundation for the future of work. As always, thank you for sharing your opinions and views with us!

Hello out there! As we wind down 2021 and look forward to 2022...here’s a quick virtual message from our team to you and yours. So many Mironeers (internal Miro staffers) were eager to spread the joy to you, we couldn’t resist!   A great, big THANK YOU to everyone who has contributed so passionately throughout the years to the strength of the Miro Community.
