Inspiration and connection

I have this dream of being able to fluidly and seamlessly present and work with a group using Miro and Zoom, and what I would really like to do is to use both touch to navigate the Miro workspace, and a pen or stylus to write and draw, just as I would on an actual whiteboard.I'm hoping for a single interface to address both.I have tried using a “standard” touch screen monitor, but found the one I tried was only sensitive to a finger tip and the drawing/writing detail was not fine.I have a Wacom Intuos tablet, but have found Palm Rejection with this tablet is not supported in the Miro interface. When using the stylus I have to turn off Touch manually with a switch on the side of the tablet otherwise when I rest my hand on the tablet to draw, it zooms and pans the Miro workspace unpredictably.  I find this is clunky and slow when I am trying to get into the flow of working and presenting to a group.My current workaround is to use a mouse for navigation, and then the tablet for writing. I

Remember the classic TV show, Amazing Race? Ever wanted to be a part of it? Now you can and in Miro, of course!Last November, @NurulFathiyah created and delivered the A-Miro-Zing Race experience during an APAC Miro User Group event. It was a great success! @Joshua William Davies and I decided that, as with any savvy TV executives will tell you, “Let’s do a bigger LIVE re-run!”So here’s your opportunity to join this race, this 11 March. It’s going to be bigger and bolder as we have invited collaborators from around the world to contribute a piece of their own unique Miro experience to make up the puzzles and race challenges. It’s not a walk in a park, for sure.If you’re ready to have fun, laughter, and explore more Miro possibilities, register for the event now!https://events.miro.com/events/details/miro-apac-presents-a-miro-zing-race-2021-bigger-better-bolder/#/   

We’ve been having a blast developing tools for this community on the Miro API/SDK.  ‘Blast’ doesn’t capture it… the ability to build tools on top of all the amazing features in Miro is straight-up life changing.  The developer docs and sample projects are well put together and make it easy to get started. Its not rocket science -- but the potential feels … astronomical 🤓 ←  Miro now  |   Miro after the creative world discovers the API → What follows is a glimpse into how its been going. We’re about to begin sharing the tools in beta. We’ll keep you posted.  Always eager to share what we’ve learned and collaborate with other Miro enthusiasts. I’ll probably post over in the ‘Developer Forum’ a deeper dive into some of the more developer side of things…     Miro Plugin Development Project HQ Here’s some screenshots of our development HQ Miro board … don’t mind the mess, if I knew you were coming over I’d have cleaned the place up.   The High Level Top left / top: Concept, Glossary and Re

Hello, an idea and question to all German users: What about the idea to meet either virtual or in real life in a real world meeting. Therefore I like to know:Where do you come from and is anyone interested in a meeting?Please post the answers here into this thread.Looking forward for as many answers as possible and maybe to meet and share ideas.Ich komme aus Düsseldorf - NRWMichael

There is one way often used by coaches is to describe the inner conflict of a person with different voices and giving them a graphical optical background.I have this created in miro - This example shows the inner conflict of a person who hears from his boss:I have choosen you for this task, because you’re the only one who can do this.The inner conflict of this person is:He is totally exausted and without any energy on one side and on the other side he feels flattered by his boss. He likes to shout at his boss but his inner voices telling him not to do so … I really love to work with miro in a coaching process … it offers me so much to show: Michael

As an Agile Coach I used to work with clients in-person - I love that ❤️Conducting a remote workshop isn’t just the same - nor should it be. Both formats have their benefits and disadvantages, but as a facilitator I can’t just do the same in a remote setting what I used to do in-person by using a digital whiteboard. I reflected upon this little dilema in a recent article of mine. As a facilitator of a remote workshop I have to think about much more deliberatly then for an in-person workshop. I have to create and set the stage perfectly so that my audience isn’t drifting off. ➡️ Here you find my article: The missing 10 minutes before a remote workshop ⬅️❓I would love to know, what do you do differently when preparing a remote workshop compared to an in-person workshop? And what do you think about the tips I layed out in my article?⬇️Below you can find an example that I explain in the article how I try to set the stage even before the actual workshop has started.

Hello,I created a short video that shows most of the functions of miro in a German video.Michael

Hello, I am Nestor Zegarra, who recently graduated from Johannes Keppler University Business School in Linz, Austria. Due to covid-19 restrictions, I had to find a solution to conduct online qualitative research. Therefore, I chose to use MIRO for developing a focus group discussion.The different characteristics allow my research to collect the necessary data. The interviewees were able not only to express themselves but also to interact with each other. I believe that MIRO has great potential to develop more and more applications in different aspects of interaction and production of its users' data.I would like to know if anyone else has had a similar experience in using MIRO for research.

A very insightful study by PwC on #remotework trends. Zooming on the 'physical office' conundrum, it seems like employers and employees have different expectations on what the physical workplace should deliver.In my mind, I can see a promising middle ground that is the hybrid model. Simply because none of those factors quoted by both employers and employees are impossible to achieve while working remotely.What I'm proposing (in fact, a couple of my clients are running away with this idea!) is the concept of 'Virtual Middle Place' (somebody has a snazzier moniker?) It is a hybrid workplace enabled by collaborative and interactive platforms such as Miro, Mural and Stormboard.It is a middle place for an organisation where some people will choose to work from home, some in the office, and most will switch their environments once in a while. A very fluid working environment, yet always connected.Using #virtualmiddleplace, facilitative leadership theories and techniques, I believe I can help

Hi All!On Wed, Mar 3, 4:00 PM (PST) a Certified Scrum Master and User Leader, Kristin Greenhouse will be hosting a *free* event showcasing how to use Miro to energize Scrum Events - come join us and rsvp here: https://events.miro.com/events/details/miro-san-diego-presents-energize-scrum-events-using-miro/#/

When our team started planning new projects for the current period, we decided that it was time to have everyone participate and commit. We also wanted everyone to know about everyone else’s projects, and we wanted to provide a chance for everyone to participate in anything that was of their interest and matched their skillset. Obviously, we jumped directly to Miro.In our board, a few things happen:Everyone participated planning the projects. Everyone shares updates on the activities related to the projects they are involved with. Everyone provides feedback!The last point is the one I am most excited about. During our monthly meetings, the whole team jumps into the Miro board to write questions, comments, suggestions, and provide help. We have never been a better connected team (even if we are working from home).

For a world-travelling facilitator and trainer, March 2020 felt like my entire professional world had collapsed. Borders closed, clients either cancelled or postponed engagements, and suddenly my professional calendar looked pretty empty.What can I do when most of my work requires people-to-people engagement and interaction?And then I discovered Miro, and what a journey it has been! Read about my experience and my ‘Top 5 tips to transition into a virtual facilitator’:https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/making-jump-transitioning-virtual-facilitation-isman-tanuri/I’d love to hear your thoughts and your own experience too in the comments.

Hey fellow Miroers. As noted by @German Manvelov in this post, it looks like there are number of changes in the way Mind Maps, some noted in the updated Mind Maps and others not.Some of the changes:Reassigning nodes - Noted in the help article, you can now reassign a child/parent node by simply clicking and dragging it - however, as noted by @German Manvelov, this is perhaps not as polished as it could be and appears to create some challenges, especially if you you are simply try to move the node and not reassign in. Here I am just clicking and dragging a node - watch as it reassigns itself as I just attempt to move it over to the right: Creating a new Mind Map from a node - In this post by @Diy, I believe there was previously a bug where you could duplicate a mind map node using copy/cut-and-paste, Ctrl+D, or Alt+drag. Once you did, it retained its status of a sub-node which looked kind of funny on its own. However, it could still be reattached to a mind map was orphaned. Now when yo

I’m looking for some advice and guidance on using miro for a working group.  If they are looking to post many documents, weblinks, images etc  within key themes - what is the best way to organize this? Folders?  Multiple boards?   Is it searchable?  Can they be nested within each other? If this a good tool for curating content/cataloguing content - or would you use a different tool such as google drive?  I like the visual nature of it, easy ability to upload - but I am not sure if Miro is a good tool for such work.  We are new at using it so any advice would be great.  Thanks,Julie

Please Miro Gods! Almighty pros! Tell me I can define a finite space so my non-native-late-adopters can stop getting lost.  I realize they can click on "me" to get back, but the stress of it all is robbing me of workshop time and the participants of a stress free experience.  Would also love to be able to lock half the features so I can introduce people to one tool at a time. Is that a thing?  Cortisol + learning curve+ more space than we need= creativity drain.

For our November Miro APAC VMUG workshop we had the awesome @NurulFathiyah lead us through an incredible Amazing Race style session: a board with various activities and clues, and teams spread in separate Zoom breakouts racing around the virtual world.Watching what unfolded was awe inspiring, and expanded what I personally thought was possible using a few simple structures and tools combined with Nurul's awesome facilitation.Feedback was great:"One of the things I really loved this was at some stages all the teams had the same task in the same city and then at other times we went to different places. Plus there were elements of choice too. ""I’ve never seen the programme was based on but the game made sense anyway, which shows how well it was designed and explained.""Awesome and especially unique experience! This offered a good idea of how this could improve collaboration across remote team members. Kudos!""I sure had fun going "backpacking around the world" ! This Miro Board is really

Hey everyone! Happy Friday 😊   I don’t know about you but lately I’ve been having soooo many video conferencing calls. Back to back. One zoom call to a google hangout to a FaceTime and so on and so on. I completely understand that during this time we’re all trying to stay connected and can feel isolated just being at home but I’ve almost hit a breaking point.    How are all of you handling this? Any tips and tricks?     

Hi there, I’ve been using MIRO for about 4 weeks now, and I was wondering if anyone has tips on design best practices when it comes to balancing text size, to frame size, to zoom ratio? (if that makes sense)

Who here works in a learning and development or training capacity at their company or uses Miro for those purposes?I’d love to hear how you’re using it to foster engagement and facilitate learning in the workplace.What boards are you using?What templates are most useful for you?what works? What doesn’t? 

I have several clients and I want to work with them separately. I bought a consultant plan - and now have a question - how to orginize work with my clients? Do I need to open new teams or I should make new project at the my main team and invite consultants there?I don’t want to pay extra money for additional licenses I want that boards created for each client see only this client.
