About the template
Project Charters are an essential element to any project, as they ensure the project team is able to describe all relevant project details. The Lean Project Charter does all this in one easy space, and leveraging the power of Miro, you can now complete a charter with your team in no time and ensure everyone is on the same page for what we want to do, and how we will do it, and who needs to be involved.
This Miroverse submission includes an easy to follow three part template, with the first part introducing the 10 elements to this Lean Project Charter and a description for each element. This includes:
Background and Business Gap
Problem Statement
Customers and Stakeholders
Goals or Objective Statement
Business Metrics
Assumptions
Out of Scope or Project Boundaries
Project Team
Key Project Milestones and timelines
And Sign Off
Next, there is a brainstorming template complete with sticky notes so you and your team can get all of your ideas captured easily. And finally, there is a blank template where you can develop your final charter in preparation for sign off by the appropriate senior resources.
Get your team on the same page using the Lean Project Charter and you can collaboratively plan out your project activities while ensuring that you deliver exactly what was expected of your team.

Quick Retrospective Template
Works best for:
Education, Retrospectives, Meetings
A retrospective template empowers you to run insightful meetings, take stock of your work, and iterate effectively. The term “retrospective” has gained popularity over the more common “debriefing” and “post-mortem,” since it’s more value-neutral than the other terms. Some teams refer to these meetings as “sprint retrospectives” or “iteration retrospectives,” “agile retrospectives” or “iteration retrospectives.” Whether you are a scrum team, using the agile methodology, or doing a specific type of retrospective (e.g. a mad, sad, glad retrospective), the goals are generally the same: discovering what went well, identifying the root cause of problems you had, and finding ways to do better in the next iteration.
What? So What? Now What? Template
Works best for:
Agile Workflows, Retrospectives, Brainstorming
The What? So What? Now What? Framework empowers you to uncover gaps in your understanding and learn from others’ perspectives. You can use the What? So What? Now What? Template to guide yourself or a group through a reflection exercise. Begin by thinking of a specific event or situation. During each phase, ask guiding questions to help participants reflect on their thoughts and experience. Working with your team, you can then utilize the template to record your ideas and to guide the experience.
Lean Coffee
Works best for:
Agile Methodology
Lean Coffee is a collaborative meeting format that encourages open dialogue and self-organization. Participants suggest discussion topics, vote on them, and engage in time-boxed conversations. This template provides a structured framework for facilitating Lean Coffee sessions, enabling teams to address issues, share knowledge, and make decisions collectively. By fostering inclusivity and autonomy, Lean Coffee empowers teams to drive meaningful discussions, build consensus, and drive continuous improvement.
Startup Canvas Template
Works best for:
Leadership, Documentation, Strategic Planning
A Startup Canvas helps founders express and map out a new business idea in a less formal format than a traditional business plan. Startup Canvases are a useful visual map for founders who want to judge their new business idea’s strengths and weaknesses. This Canvas can be used as a framework to quickly articulate your business idea’s value proposition, problem, solution, market, team, marketing channels, customer segment, external risks, and Key Performance Indicators. By articulating factors like success, viability, vision, and value to the customer, founders can make a concise case for why a new product or service should exist and get funded.

This template enables teams to reflect on past iterations, identify actionable insights, and prioritize improvements. By promoting clarity and focus, the Starfish Retrospective empowers teams to drive meaningful change and continuous improvement effectively.
