Ever feel like brainstorms don’t lead your team anywhere? Or you end up moving forward with ideas from the loudest person in the room? And then there are remote-specific challenges, like keeping everyone energized and focused (instead of zoned out and checking their email).

Here at Miro, nearly every project starts with a (virtual) brainstorm. We’ve lived the highs and lows, and wrapped as many learnings as we can into a brand new guide. Also, check out our favorite templates and upcoming events to keep the ideas flowing.

Happy collaborating!
