Hey everyone, Lindsey here, Product Marketing Manager for Remote Meetings and Workshops.
Whether you’re a seasoned pro or have found yourself suddenly remote, running remote meetings and workshops can be challenging. We’ve released a series of enhancements and new resources to help you design and facilitate amazing online sessions in Miro.
Setup and Preparation
-
Visual Notes - Set an agenda, add instructions, or an outline of the board for easy audience onboarding.
-
*New* Meeting and Workshop Templates - Get a head start designing your boards. Check out the new templates available in-app in the Templates Library.
-
Lock - Lock elements and templates to the background to avoid accidental editing. This UX improvement reduces the chance of accidental unlocking.
-
*New* Guest Editors (all paid plans) - The quickest and easiest way to invite collaborators that don’t have a Miro account yet.
Remote Facilitation
-
Screen Sharing - Enable participants to follow along as you navigate the board and focus their attention on your presentation with editing paused.
-
Video Chat (all paid plans) - Start a quick video chat directly from Miro to reduce the number of tools and simplify the experience for audience members.
-
Timer (all paid plans) - A facilitator's favorite that shouldn’t be missed. Display a countdown timer on every participant's board to stay on track as a group remotely.
-
Voting (all paid plans) - Take an anonymous poll of items on the board to prioritize or identify preferred items democratically.
-
Additional facilitation features coming soon!
