About the Meeting Organizer template
The 5 Benefits of Organizing Meetings
Generate more ideas - We’ve all stepped into a conference room for a meeting with no idea what it’s about. It’s never a good experience! If your teammates don’t know the goal, stakes, or benefits of this meeting, it will be harder for them to come equipped with ideas. By organizing a meeting, you increase the chances that people will show up ready to participate.
Generate better ideas - Meetings aren’t just about ideas -- they’re about good ideas. Organize your meetings to empower your teammates to put their best foot forward. If your teammates understand what the meeting is for, what you hope to accomplish, and how it fits into the bigger picture, their ideas will reflect that understanding.
Improve efficiency - Simply put, an organized meeting will take up less time than a disorganized one. And organized meetings take up better time than disorganized meetings. Rather than spending the meeting answering questions about the meeting itself, organized meetings give you space to talk about the things that matter.
Get more people involved - When it comes to discussions, people have different styles and preferences. Many of your teammates might prefer to write down their ideas rather than communicate them orally, for example. An organized meeting gives everyone a chance to contribute in the style of their choice.
Turn disagreements into discussion - In any meeting, disagreements are inevitable. This is far from a bad thing. After all, disagreements help you grow and iterate. But organization is the difference between disagreement and discussion. In a disorganized meeting, your teammates might argue without resolution because they don’t have a good idea of their goal. In a well-organized meeting, your teammates can turn disagreements into productive discussions about how to meet a challenge.

Editorial Calendar Template
Works best for:
Marketing, Strategic Planning, Project Planning
If your company is like most, content is a big thing. You create more of it (and a lot faster) than you create almost anything else. It includes blogs, newsletters, social media posts, ads, and more—and it requires ideating, writing, editing, and publishing. That’s why every content team needs an editorial calendar. The template will let you easily create a calendar that empowers your team to plan strategically, keep things organized (by content type, writer, channel, and delivery date), and finalize/post all content on schedule.
Sailboat Template
Works best for:
Agile Methodology, Meetings, Retrospectives
The Sailboat Retrospective is a low-pressure way for teams to reflect on how they handled a project. By defining your risks (the rocks), delaying issues (anchors), helping teams (wind), and the goal (land), you’ll be able to work out what you’re doing well and what you need to improve on for the next sprint. Approaching team dynamics with a sailboat metaphor helps everyone describe where they want to go together by figuring out what slows them down and what helps them reach their future goals.
Example Mapping Template
Works best for:
Product Management, Mapping, Diagrams
To update your product in valuable ways—to recognize problem areas, add features, and make needed improvements—you have to walk in your users’ shoes. Example mapping (or user story mapping) can give you that perspective by helping cross-functional teams identify how users behave in different situations. These user stories are ideal for helping organizations form a development plan for Sprint planning or define the minimum amount of features needed to be valuable to customers.
Team Meeting Agenda Template
Works best for:
Documentation, Team Meetings, Workshops
Making the time for your team is important to help you to make decisions, align on priorities, and move in the same direction together. Team meeting agendas help add a schedule and structure to your allocated time slot when you need to share information and collaborate with your team. They also allow your team to agree on goals, talking points, action items, and who will lead the next steps. Uninterrupted team meeting time with an agenda can help your team review progress against OKRs, share updates, discuss roadblocks, and brainstorm ideas.
Floor Plan Template
Works best for:
Operations, Workshops
Maybe you’re planning a big occasion or event. Or maybe you’re arranging seating structures and traffic flows that are more permanent. Either way, creating a floor plan—an overhead scaled diagram of the space—is equal parts functional and fun. This template will let you visualize how people will move about the space and know quickly if the space will do what you need, before you commit time, money, or resources. And you’ll be able to get as detailed as you want—finding the right measurements and dimensions, and adding or removing appliances and furniture.
Event Brief Template
Works best for:
Meetings, Workshops, Project Planning
For most any organization, throwing a big deal event is…a big deal. An event can bring in publicity, new clients, and revenue. And planning it can require a substantial chunk of your overall resources. That’s why you’ll want to approach it like a high-stakes project, with clearly outlined goals, stakeholders, timelines, and budget. An event brief combines all of that information in a single source of truth that guides the events team, coordinator, or agency—and ensures the event is well-planned and well-executed.
