Inspiration and connection

Hi everyone!Someone asked me the other day how I’m using Miro to help educate clients and employees. I thought it would be fun to share our favorites here and I can share back to her! Share yours in the comments below  + Overall Planning: we use Miro's roadmap template to plan department goals & tactics, and overall company process updates by quarterhttps://miro.com/miroverse/the-life-roadmap/ + Resource planning: I actually created a template that's available in the Miroverse for planning resources: https://miro.com/miroverse/resourcing/ - we use this every single week as we plan resources for the company! + Retrospectives: after a project wraps, we use one of the many retrospective templates to collect feedback and discuss how we can do better moving forwardHere's a project kick off template we use with our retrospective board on there: https://miro.com/app/board/o9J_kiDhDnY=/?invite_link_id=261168154223Here's a little more filled out (with key info removed) retrospective templat

Project, process and task management with MiroI have started using Miro to map out processes for our company, globally. We have processes for internal business work, and for client work.I’m also using Teams with Miro to have boards, processes and tasks for different clients.Processes often require tasks to be completed by different employees and consultants.I need a way to: Create re-usable processes in Miro Assign tasks based on process steps, to employees and external consultants for completion Track the status of each task, request updates on status of each task See all tasks allocated to each employee or consultant and status of each Mark completed tasks as ‘completed’ Also, create ad-hoc tasks that sit outside regular processes or projects, and assign / track them as outlined above.  I want to be able to track all of this visually. I know conceptually that there are tools like Kanban boards, and there are various task managers. Ideally I’d like to do it all within Miro, but I

 Hi Miro community, In the past months we have organised several Miro(verse) events and it has been a success and loads of fun! We are already planning  many more, and would love to hear what topics, themes, and use cases you would like us to organise events around. Maybe there is a specific Miroverse template you would love to learn more about? Please share your thoughts, wishes, and suggestions in the comments  

I wrote this story on Medium titled “5 IT Management Words That Should Be Banned Forever.” In essence, it’s about the kind of impact the use of some common management words might have on an organization in general and the agility of product development teams in particular. What are your thoughts on this topic? Are there any words you refrain from using? Or words you try to use extra often because it helps enable a certain mindset?

Very often, we find ourselves wondering how to drive change within the company we work for. @Joost de Leij and Limelights have developed some great frameworks to help drive impact. Check out the co-authored blog post here. 

Hi everyone,  I am a U.S. Marine Veteran and have been working on a passion project in Miro for a while and would like to share it with the community for feedback. In the tactical components of the military we use a tool called a terrain model (see image 1). These terrain models provide the organization’s leadership and team members with a depiction of an operational environment. Moreover, these terrain models allow for “strategic overlays” where we can visually demonstrate our plan to ensure everyone is on the same page. This is a tool that has been used, to great success, for many years in the military because of its undeniable effectiveness.  While working to take my personal training business online, I became frustrated with how siloed and fragmented the software space was. It seemed like I was only able to a view a single piece of the map at one time. I wanted the ability to see the entirety of my business in one place. So I searched far and wide for this type of solution. Althoug

Hi Miro Community,Today @Rachel and @Jonathan White will be leading a Miro Board Improv session and it is going to be loads of fun!  I am sure we will all leave the session inspired to create and share ideas!  Let’s continue the conversation here and share boards you create inspired by this workshop!And let’s think of what the next theme could be... Cats vs Dogs, anyone?! 

Miro has been an amazing platform for me professionally in the last year. I’ve told some stories in this community about my experience and experiments in using Miro.But now I’d like to invite Miro users in Asia Pacific to share your own Miro discovery, early pains, effective gains and how you are using Miro these days.Experts or novices, all are welcome to share! Remember to let us know where you’re from and I look forward to your Miro stories in this forum.PS. In case you’re not aware, we have a virtual Asia Pacific Miro User meetup group. Do sign up here: https://events.miro.com/apac/

I’m interested in examples of how you are using Miro to visually organize complex and nested information for intuitive, asynchronous exploration.  What are we doing to allow communities to “live” asynchronously in Miro beyond live workshops and events?For example, as a:homebase hub library archive system map mission control Some use cases:As basecamp for a conference, organizing all conference-related activities at a glance, like the Mission Control board for Miro’s recent Distributed 101 Conference or this Book Fair shared by @Istanbul Literature House  As the backbone for an entire college course curriculum that students visit each week to find their assignments and weekly workspace. As a hub for a community of practice, to hold an ever-growing collection of learnings, conversation, and resources.  As a map of MULTIPLE cohorts/communities within a large network.  (I’m picturing a map viewed from overhead, with “towns” that represent different communities of practice you can visit, or

 💕 Happy Valentine’s Day!  We can hardly express how much the Miro team appreciates every single one of you. From innovative Miroverse templates to helpful conversations, to engaging events, you’re always creating something that helps people learn and grow.

I’ve just made my first submission to the Miroverse, so hopefully it gets approved in time. I absolutely LOVE a themed retrospective, and also allowing teams to give unsolicited feedback to each other. With that in mind, I created the Valentine’s Day template.

Hello All!Miro has been a savior to our innovation consulting business. And Miro has evolved greatly over the past 15 months (thank you!). We’re now wondering what the world will look like as we get back to traveling to do workshops with clients, and have a couple of questions. We’re anticipating that we’ll be doing some workshops where people will be both in the room and remote at the same time.How do you all anticipate managing this hybrid environment with Miro? (or how do you currently do it?) Typically we have people focus on each other, rather than on a laptop in front of them, adding sticky notes in Miro. In fact we discourage computer use during workshops, so that they can focus the ideas and energy in the room (we tend to scribe ideas). Would everyone just have their own input device or could we just capture on a central device? If you’ve done workshops like this, what challenges have you come across and how have you resolved them? If you are doing these hybrid workshops, how d

Were you able to check out Miroversity Live last week? The spirit of learning makes me think of the different ways that our community helps people learn about Miro every day. What are the best ways for beginners to learn about Miro and for advanced Miro users to up-level their skills? Do you recommend any YouTube video or workshops from Miro Experts? Do you have a favorite help center article that everyone should bookmark? Let us know!
