June 22, 2020 Over the past few months we’ve seen the world change before our eyes. Here at Miro, we’ve seen first-hand how collaboration habits have evolved as companies worldwide have shifted to remote work. The differences are evident in how teams are using our product, every day. We’ve been closely observing these developments and identifying ways to respond to them.
Asking good questions is one of the hardest skills to master. Anyone who’s ever given an interview, participated in a panel or webinar, or even gone on a date knows that an uninspired question can really kill the conversation. When it comes to brainstorming, good questions are everything. We’ve all been in brainstorming sessions that started out fine but quickly lost steam, or that never took off at all.
If there was one thing you could improve on your team, what would it be? Most common answers to this question aren’t around ability or leadership. Instead, they tend to focus on a lack of alignment and information. These were difficult areas to get right before the shift to remote work and have only gotten more challenging since. We have experimented with all sorts of approaches for keeping our team aligned and informed at Hugo.
Every day, Miro users are creating and collaborating in ways we’d never dreamed up. It’s only by seeing all these projects in the wild we get a glimpse into the possibilities. And what we’ve seen so far is amazing. Many people have already been sharing their boards on social media and in the Miro online community, but we wanted to find a way to bring all of these incredible examples together in a dedicated place that’s useful and actionable for everyone who uses Miro.
Starting today, all Miro users have access to Grids, a new widget that allows you to organize content within visual tables in a matter of seconds.
Whether you’re running a professional workshop, holding an impromptu brainstorming session, or transitioning your Agile ceremonies online, managing and facilitating online sessions can be challenging. From introducing new technology to keeping everyone on track, there is a lot to consider. Over the last weeks and months we’ve seen a growing need for solutions that enable online, collaborative sessions.
