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.

Meeting Reflection Template
Works best for:
Meetings, Brainstorming, Team Meetings
When schedules get hectic, “learning by doing” becomes the default way to learn. So make time for your team to learn in other valuable ways — by reflecting and listening. Led by “learners,” (team members who share with the rest of the team), a meeting reflection lets teammates share new information about a client’s business or an internal business initiative, offer problem-solving techniques, or even recommend books or podcasts worth checking out. Meeting reflections also encourage colleagues at all levels to engage in each other’s professional development of their teammates.
This or That Template
Works best for:
Marketing, Meetings, Workshops
If you’re a social media manager, a designer, or just someone who loves photography, then you’ve probably seen the “This or That” game on Instagram. The premise is simple: You make two parallel lists that pit a series of choices against each other, like “apples or oranges” or “pizza or hot dogs”. The Instagram user chooses between the various options by circling the one that they prefer. Then they share the completed game with their followers. Although it was popularized on Instagram, you can use This or That on other social media platforms too, or even your website or blog.
Working Backwards Template

Desk Research, Strategic Planning, Product Management
Find out how to use the Working Backwards template to plan, structure, and execute the launch of a new product. Using the template, you’ll figure out if the product is worth launching in the first place.
DevOps Roadmap Template
Works best for:
Documentation, Product Management, Software Development
DevOps teams are constantly creating code, iterating, and pushing it live. Against this backdrop of continuous development, it can be hard to stay abreast of your projects. Use this DevOps Roadmap template to get a granular view of the product development process and how it fits into your organization's product strategy. The DevOps Roadmap lays out the development and operations initiatives you have planned in the short term, including milestones and dependencies. This easy-to-use format is easily digestible for audiences such as product, development, and IT ops.
Meeting Template
Works best for:
Meetings, Team Meetings, Workshops
Everyone has been in a meeting that didn’t go as planned. Maybe it ran off course, or you ran out of time to accomplish everything you set out to do -- or maybe it just felt like a waste of time. To avoid that, it’s important to prepare to run a team meeting ahead of time. With this simple but effective template, you can prepare to run a team meeting that ticks all the boxes. By creating a streamlined way to build preparation into your workflow, you’ll ensure your meetings are efficient, enjoyable, and collaborative.
Eisenhower Matrix Template
Works best for:
Leadership, Strategic Planning, Prioritization
Have an overwhelming list of to-dos? Prioritize them based on two key factors: urgency and importance. It worked for American president Dwight D. Eisenhower, and it can work for you—this decision-making framework will help you know where to start and how to plan your day. With our template, you can easily build an Eisenhower Matrix with a quadrant of key areas (Do, Schedule, Delegate, and Don’t Do) and revisit it throughout the day as your priorities change.
