About the Monthly Planner Template
A monthly planner template can come in handy, especially if you have big projects and goals to accomplish for the month. It helps to take a big picture, a 10,000-foot view of things—meaning a 30-day view. With the template monthly planner, teams track and space out every deadline and to-do, making it an essential strategic planning tool.
How to use the monthly planner template in 3 steps
Here’s a simple guide on how to use and get the most out of your online monthly planner.
1. Choose a template
Choose from a range of templates in Miro’s template gallery: you can use either a weekly or monthly planner. You can also use multiple templates simultaneously to plan out longer periods of time, i.e., a stacking daily planner, weekly planner, and monthly planner.
2. Add events or tasks using sticky notes or texts
With your template chosen, you can then start adding individual tasks, events, or to-do lists using text blocs or sticky notes. Make sure to tag the right people on these tasks so everyone knows what to do.
3. Add visuals
Company logos and icons, pictures, and more bring some personality and fun to your work. They’re also a great way to identify separate projects in your monthly planner quickly.

Cross Functional Flowchart
Works best for:
Org Charts, Business Management
Have a quick look at everyone on a project and see exactly what they’ll contribute. That’s the clarity and transparency a cross-functional flowchart will give you. These are also called “swim lane” flowcharts because each person (each customer, client, or representative from a specific function) is assigned a lane—a clear line—that will help you visualize their roles at each stage of the project. This template will empower you to streamline processes, reduce inefficiencies, and make meaningful cross-functional relationships.
Product Reflection
Works best for:
Product Management, Planning
The Product Reflection template encourages teams to reflect on past experiences and lessons learned in product development journeys. By facilitating retrospective sessions, capturing insights, and identifying improvement opportunities, this template fosters a culture of continuous learning and improvement. With sections for evaluating successes, challenges, and areas for growth, it enables teams to iterate on their processes and enhance future product development efforts. This template serves as a tool for fostering team collaboration and driving iterative product innovation.
Sitemap Template
Works best for:
Mapping, Software Development, Diagrams
Building a website is a complex task. Numerous stakeholders come together to create pages, write content, design elements, and build a website architecture that serves a target audience. A sitemap is an effective tool for simplifying the website design process. It allows you to take stock of the content and design elements you plan to include on your site. By visualizing your site, you can structure and build each component in a way that makes sense for your audience.
Kanban Framework Template
Works best for:
Kanban Boards, Agile Methodology, Agile Workflows
Optimized processes, improved flow, and increased value for your customers — that’s what the Kanban method can help you achieve. Based on a set of lean principles and practices (and created in the 1950s by a Toyota Automotive employee), Kanban helps your team reduce waste, address numerous other issues, and collaborate on fixing them together. You can use our simple Kanban template to both closely monitor the progress of all work and to display work to yourself and cross-functional partners, so that the behind-the-scenes nature of software is revealed.
SIPOC Template
Works best for:
Agile Methodology, Strategic Planning, Mapping
A SIPOC diagram maps a process at a high level by identifying the potential gaps between suppliers and input specifications and between customers and output specifications. SIPOC identifies feedback and feed-forward loops between customers, suppliers, and the processes and jump-starts the team to think in terms of cause and effect.
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.
