Present your work asynchronously
Record interactive video and audio walkthroughs of your Miro board to keep your team informed and engaged without having to schedule a meeting.

How to create a workflow visualization in Miro
1
Set up your Miro board
Open a Miro board and invite any collaborators you’d like to build your workflow visualization with.
2
Create a table
Head to the toolbar, click on “More apps,” and look for the Tables tool. Then create a 4x2 table and adjust its size until the top row is narrow and the bottom row is wide.
3
Adjust and label the columns
From left to right, label each column of the top row as follows: On hold, In progress, Needs review, Approved.
4
Add your workflow tasks
From here, it’s a matter of adding your tasks and placing them in the right column according to their status. Use cards, sticky notes, and text boxes to represent your tasks and any important context.
“Miro helps solve one of the major gaps in product design: how to manage tasks across product designers whose projects are in different tools.”
