What is a team meeting board?

A team meeting board is a tool to visualize and organize team meetings. This tool aims to highlight individual thoughts within a team while addressing different points that are important for good team cohesion, efficiency and generally, a good mindset. In iObeya the team meeting board is illustrated by several categories:

  • A “team life” category
  • An “exchange/sharing” category
  • An “agency life/activity” category
  • A “productivity” category
  • A “success” category
  • A “satisfaction” category
  • A “mood of the day” category

To use a team meeting board, each participant should write down, show and then explain what they have marked for each category. This visual collaboration board helps a team stay organized, focused, and connected, which can lead to improved collaboration and productivity.

Why is a team meeting board used?

A team meeting board is commonly used to help order and structure the process of a regular team meeting. It avoids meetings going over time and therefore allows a team to be as efficient as possible.

Who uses a team meeting board?

All teams can find themselves using a team meeting board, no matter the sector or department.

Pro Tips on how to set up a team meeting board
