Supercharge Team Alignment with New Miro Voting Widgets

Overview Miro's intelligent widgets – Polls, Dot Voting, Alignment Scales, Story Points, and the People Widget – make team alignment seamless and collaborative. From quick voting to in-depth creative insights, these tools are designed to unlock team potential.

Why It Works Team intelligence isn’t about individual brilliance; it’s about how teams collaborate and listen, avoiding groupthink and fostering creativity. Tools like these empower teams to explore, refine, and decide using Design Thinking’s Double Diamond framework. Diverge to generate creative ideas, then converge to align.

My Favourite Technique Use Jake Knapp’s “Note and Vote” to avoid groupthink. Teams brainstorm ideas individually, then vote together for swift, inclusive decisions.

Who Should Use It Everyone. Swap a meeting for a Miro. Replace those ineffective meetings with engaging collaborative sessions, designed to ensure everyone has a voice, not just Senior Simon, Passionate Prue or Loud Lorraine.

It's perfect for facilitators, project managers, and teams aiming for creative alignment, whether brainstorming, planning, or decision-making.
